Excellent attorney!

Peter Banfe is a leader in his field. He is honest, fair and has superb communication skills. His responsiveness was beyond expectation. When we initially consulted him, he suggested we attempt to settle "out of court and save a great deal of time and money" and even provided us great advice on how t...o accomplish this. We were a bit surprised at how open and honest he was. The attempts failed and we subsequently needed to retain him. We found him to be exceptionally bright, professional, diligent and efficient. In addition, I would be remiss not to mention his affable personality and wit. We felt a myriad of emotions during our process and Peter was understanding and compassionate. We knew early on in our relationship with Pete that no matter the outcome, we had the absolute best representation. We would not hesitate to use him in the future or recommend him to others.

Got me to the finish line!

Mr. Banfe represented me post Divorce to finalize paperwork that was left incomplete by another attorney. Mr. Banfe and his staff were professional and courteous every step of the way. He takes the time to listen and is always available and responsive. At a time when I was beyond frustrated Pete step...ped up and worked on the problems and got the process moving along. My only regret is that I didn't hire Pete from the beginning of my divorce to represent me. If you want great representation and someone to stand up for you Pete is definitely the guy!

Knowledgeable, practical, patient

I retained Mr. Banfe's service for my divorce. From the beginning his advice was very helpful, and he was very patient with my questions. One of the qualities that I appreciated most was his ability to craft a legal letter that hit upon all of the items requested in a fast amount of billable time. ...I feel that he helped me obtain a result that was favorable to me and was very fair. He also made himself available and met the deadlines. After my divorce there were accounts that needed to be split and seemed to stall in the pandemic. I continued to use his legal help to move these processes along. In the end, everything resolved. I am grateful for the attention and focus that he gave to my case.

Client

I have been very please with Mr. Banfe's legal services. I would highly recommend him to family and friends who need advice and counsel regarding divorce. He know the laws and is fair. He is very organized, patient, and explains everything thoroughly. He reduced my stress that came along with the div...orce process. He guided me from start to finish. His prices were fair. He is very responsive and communicates well over the phone, text, and through email. Very knowledgeable with court proceedings and Zoom hearings. I always felt prepared and was relieved he was on my side. He listens to your concerns and formulates documents well. He exceeded my expectations. I am a female who had a contentious divorce and would feel confident recommending him to any women finding herself in a divorce. If I had to do it over I'd choose him every time.

Excellent lawyer!!!

When I found myself in the market for a divorce lawyer, I knew I had to hire a great one. I interviewed many lawyers before I found Pete Banfe. He was very knowledgeable and put together an excellent team for my benefit. He listened to me and my desires while advising me as to the law. He was kind a...nd always stuck to his task. I felt confident in his defense.He did an exceptional job in preparing an effective document .Pete made sure that I was compensated monetarily and with air- tight written document. My ex did not do what he was required to do so I had to contact him again and Pete handled the ugly aftermath as well. I would, without a doubt, recommend Mr. Banfe if you happen to find yourself in the need for a divorce lawyer.

Thank you so much for your kind words Debby. I truly appreciate the opportunity to have helped you through this difficult time. I am proud of what we were able to accomplish together. There is never any "one size fits all answer" in any representation. I feel that by me understanding what you wanted to achieve and what you wanted to avoid and you understanding the range of what the law will likely allow, we were able to collaborate on the best possible outcome that made sense for you and allowed you to move on with your life.
