Caring and Professional
Peter was recommended to me by a friend. I called his office and was immediately able to get an appointment with his office. His office staff was very knowledgeable and advised me what I should bring to the appointment. Once I was introduced to Peter I felt very comfortable with him from the star...

Best decision I made
I hired Pete to go back to court with me against my ex who was playing games and using our daughter. Pete from start to finish handled things from friendly to professionally. He made sure I understood everything and consulted with me before sending anything so I was on the same page. His office staff...
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.

Excellent service

Thank you for your kind words. I strive to be as available as I can be in each representation. I always try my best to advocate for the best result possible and I appreciate you recognizing that. Working together we have been able to achieve that. Your willingness to continue to hire me through the years as challenges arise is the best compliment I could receive.

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...
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.
"Mr. Banfe and I were adversaries in a divorce matter. He was very knowledgeable and an effective advocate for his client. I endorse Mr. Banfe."
