Excellent attorney

Pete was great. He handled my divorce and really advocated for me throughout the entire process. He helped a very difficult situation go as smoothly as possible. I would recommend him to anyone in need of a family attorney.

I appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. The divorce process can be very difficult and sometimes can feel like it will never end. I truly appreciate all of your patience and assistance in helping me properly prepare your matter for an eventual favorable outcome. Thank you for your recommendation and I wish you the best of luck in your next chapter.

Great lawyer

Mr. Banfe handled my recent divorce. He is clear, compassionate, professional, patient, and he LISTENS! Yes……a lawyer that listens!! He is easy to talk to and understands the emotional complexities that go along with a divorce. A divorce is unpleasant (even on a good day), but I never felt like I... was alone in the process. He ALWAYS answered emails and returned phone calls within hours. (not days). I never had to wonder when I would get a response. He works hard on behalf of his clients and I will always be grateful. I hope I never need a lawyer again, however he will be my first phone call if the need arises.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. Divorce is a difficult process even under the best of circumstances. I truly appreciate all of your patience and perseverance throughout. Given all of the uncertainty that takes place throughout, I always strive to keep you as informed as I possibly could during the process. I am happy for you that this is not behind you and I hope you can move forward in a healing way now, but if ever needed, I'll be here.

Family Law Lawyer

Pete was thorough and worked diligently to get a deal done that I was happy with that ultimately kept me from going to court. He is someone you can trust and I always felt like we were a team with a common goal and that he only did what was necessary to accomplish that goal. I never felt like Pete d...id things just to get billable hours. I would highly recommend him to help you with your divorce and will refer him to family and friends.

Best divorce attorney hands down!!

I enthusiastically, highly recommend Mr. Pete Banfe! Pete is the best divorce attorney hands down. I was the Plaintiff in a divorce matter and retain Mr. Banfe to handle a post judgment divorce issue. Mr. Banfe handled my case with professionalism and achieved extraordinary results!! I am forever gra...teful to him for his unwavering commitment. The ex-husband tried to gain assets of mine he was not entitled to. Mr. Banfe wealth of knowledge prevented that outcome from becoming a reality. This is why, I am compelled to write a review and share my experience about Mr. Banfe exemplary work on my case. I hope this review helps those searching for a divorce attorney to decide on hiring Mr. Banfe like did. Pete truly understands the high stakes of divorce and related issues. Mr. Banfe manifested empathy, honesty, experience, keen knowledge, clarity, and patience consistently throughout my case. His fees were fair and reasonable. Pete was not interested in dragging out my case and putting me through unnecessary stress just to run up a bill. He and his staff kept me informed every step of the way, which eased my stress and brought comfort allowing me to focus on work. The exemplary brief that Mr. Banfe prepared on my case was so well crafted that the Judge issued a tentative order the day prior to the hearing. It contained the favorable results that Pete was seeking and that I had hoped for. The ex-husband conceded and the tentative order became official. This kind of result was only possible because, Mr. Banfe not only took my case seriously. He possesses a strong sense of justice and fairness and is motivated to ensure that the legal system functioned properly. I am happy that I hired Pete!! and you will be too. Hiring the wrong attorney could have meant that the ex-husband could have gained assets of mine he was not entitled to. Mr. Banfe understood what was at stake and used his skilled knowledge of the law that resulted in an order denying the relief the ex was seeking. When faced with divorce litigation, you need the right attorney on your side. Hire Mr. Pete Benfe and his firm like I did. My choice in retaining Pete and his firm proved to be the absolute best decision! I could not have hoped for a better outcome. There is no need to look any further than Mr. Pete Benfe he is truly exceptional and the BEST divorce attorney!
