Posted by Debby | November 13, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

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.

Prenuptial Agreement

I contacted and hired Pete to draft a prenuptial agreement. He was straightforward throughout the entire process, beginning with the initial phone call and in person consultation through the signing and execution of the agreement. He told me what to expect throughout the process in the initial consul...tation and he was true to his word. The agreement he prepared was very well written and incorporated everything I requested. His fee was very fair, reasonable and competitive, with no hidden charges or excessive billing. Pete was very responsive throughout the entire process and easy to reach through email and phone calls. I would not hesitate to hire Pete again and I highly recommend him.

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
