Don't use ANYONE else - don't be a dummy!
If you're reading this - stop. Pick up the phone. Call Pete Banfe's office. You will not regret it. I hired Pete Banfe and it was among the best decisions I've ever made. I literally don't know where to start. Do I begin with his strategic take on reading between the lines and thinking 2-3 ste...

Best decision I made

Thanks you for taking the time to share your experience. Although it took its time for this custody matter to proceed through the court system, I'm so happy we were able to work together to develop and continue to reassess as needed, a game plan and stay on the same page throughout. Your willingness to assist in giving me the information needed to help me prepare and persevering through the process played a huge role.

Relocation
This was the first time I ever had to hire an attorney. I was trying to relocate myself and my 2 children out of state. I was informed by Pete of my options and the steps that we would need take. Pete was always available by email or phone to answer any questions. We were able to successfully res...
Going to a lawyer can be overwhelming and I'm so glad you felt at ease and prepared. Your help in working collaboratively with me to prepare your case for trial was instrumental in us being able to successfully resolve the issues. Best of luck!
