Honest and forthright representation

I came to Pete as a recommendation from a good friend of mine. Pete was sincere when addressing any and all of my concerns during the consultation and outlined multiple directions/options for me to choose as next steps. Upon hiring Pete, he tended to my case promptly and stayed in contact consisten...tly with updates on the status of the case. Pete provided me with a realistic parenting agreement scenario, including custody and child support payments, and I was able to secure an agreement very close to what Pete had suggested. All in all, very happy with the service I received from Pete and would go back to him immediately if anything came up needing his attention.

Truly great at what he does

Pete Banfe helped me with my child custody case. It has surely been a long road, however Pete was there every step of the way to help. He was very knowledgeable of law, court procedure, and understood what I was trying to accomplish. He was a true advocate for me and my child. Any document that came... in from court, Pete was quick to call me to go over it and ease my stress by explaining what it meant and discussing our next move. Let's be honest, court is never a fun event. He helped me to understand what my rights are, create a plan, plan b, and plan c, as well as counsel me on any future decisions. Having a plan always gave me a sense of relief and a piece of mind. While I know Pete had other clients, you would never think so with the individualized service he provides. Any curve ball that we were served, which there were many, he helped me handle with grace, diligence, and vigor. Pete is intelligent, compassionate, a great advisor, and much much more. He would be a great asset to anybody in a matrimonial or child custody matter! I highly recommend him!!! Pete- Thank you for everything you have done for us. You truly are great at what you do and during a time that was so stressful and trying, you helped me get through. I know you will be the same for so many other families like mine. Sincerely, Heather

Pete Banfe - Marriage and Family Law Expertise

I've had the privilege of working with Pete Banfe over a number of years. I turned to him at one of the most difficult times in my life - when my marriage was ending. I was extremely upset, my four sons were deeply effected and I was also very confused. Pete analyzed my situation and determined ...the best path to travel that would set me up to start to build a life on my own as well as enable me to provide for my sons who were splitting their time with their parents in two separate homes. The most valuable service Pete provided was that he advocated for me when I was unable to advocate for myself. That was incredibly helpful. The most affirming event that occurred during this process was when Pete was publicly praised in open court by the judge who was hearing our motion. She recognized Pete for his knowledge of the law and his knowledge of courtroom procedures. I've referred a number of people to him over the years. I'll always be grateful to Pete and would recommend him to anyone in need of Marriage and Family Law expertise.

Alimony

I hired Mr. Banfe due to my ex husband filing a motion to eliminate my alimony. My ex has been paying me alimony for years now but wanted to retire but not without a date of my termination of alimony. Pete was professional, studied my case to the fullest, and we eventually went to a hearing in fron...t of the Judge. I was so confident in Pete and Archer and Greiner that when the day of the trial came, I was not a bit worried. Well, instead of termination of my alimony, Pete was able to obtain for me 5 more years! I would highly recommend Pete Banfe for your Family court matters.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education

  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
