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... was awesome as well.

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

Pete Banfe has been the most reliable and professional attorney I could have hoped for. When I initially hired him he was compassionate and always came prepared and ready for anything that came our way. I have been using him for many issues over the years and have always felt confident that he has ha...d my best interests as the top priority.

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.

Fabulous attorney/Excellent firm

After a thorough/reasonably priced consultation, I hired Mr. Banfe to represent me in multiple post divorce proceedings. He did an excellent job at negotiating a settlement in a way that protected both my interests and the interests of my child. His calm manner was always reassuring, but he was... also quick to stand up firmly to the opposition. He understands how stressful court proceedings are in family matters. His attention to detail allowed me to consider all aspects of our position. He gave me information so I could make decisions, rather than pushing me in any particular direction. ( I have experienced that with other attorneys.) I have recommended him without hesitation to numerous people in need of representation in family law, and have also had occasion to recommend other members of his firm. If they don't work with a particular area of law, they know someone excellent who does. Mr. Bamfe always provides personal attention and I never had any difficulty getting ahold of him if I had a concern. (I have spoken to other people who have been represented by big firms that have great difficulty getting in touch with their attorney.) I look forward to continuing to work with Mr. Banfe in the future should the need arise. If you are looking for a strong advocate that will fight for your rights and keep a level head, I encourage you to contact Mr. Bamfe. I strongly recommend him without reservation. Thank you for everything Pete!

Great attorney

Pete takes the time to review all the details regarding the case and develops a solid game plan for success. To summarize, my ex wanted continued payments that were not justified, subsequently, Pete got involved and reviewed all the facts. Pete's game plan was perfect and managed a successful outcome.... I've been using Pete for many years because his record of accomplishments is outstanding! If the case needs to go to court, he's exceptional as far as presenting all the facts and making his point. I highly recommend him and his firm.

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.
