Sets realistic expectations and delivers

I hired Pete Banfe to help me with a custody order modification, and I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome and the experience. From the very beginning, Pete was clear and realistic about expectations, which I really appreciated. His communication was excellent—he was timely in responding to ema...ils, kept me informed throughout the process, and stayed on top of every deadline. What stood out most was how thoroughly he prepared for every stage of the case. Pete is thoughtful, strategic, and considers all possible scenarios, which gave me a great deal of confidence going into the hearing. His approach is collaborative—he truly listened to my suggestions and made me feel like a partner in the process. Pete negotiated effectively with opposing counsel and helped me achieve a result that other attorneys had told me wasn’t possible. After initially hiring a family law attorney at Archer & Greiner who said it couldn’t be done, Pete delivered. I highly recommend Pete Banfe to anyone needing a skilled, responsive, and dedicated family law attorney. He’s the kind of advocate you want in your corner.

Thank you for your kind response. I am so glad we were able to work together to achieve a good result in your matter. Most importantly, I'm so happy that you'll be able to spend that much more time with your son. Collaborating from the outset on a realistic strategy was key. I really value all of the feedback and input. Thank you and I wish you and your family the very best.

Excellent attorney

Pete was great. He handled my divorce and really advocated for me throughout the entire process. He helped a very difficult situation go as smoothly as possible. I would recommend him to anyone in need of a family attorney.

I appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. The divorce process can be very difficult and sometimes can feel like it will never end.

Hard working and dedicated attorney

Mr. Banfe handled my divorce and I recently retained him to file a property amendment for me. He is extremely professional and kept me updated throughout the entire process. Mr. Banfe is extremely knowledgeable about his area of law expertise. I would highly recommend him to assist anyone with matt...ers of divorce, separation, or family law.

Knowledgeable, approachable and kind.

Pete Banfe was the best choice I could have made to guide me through my divorce. His ready knowledge about all matters that came up in writing my agreement was reassuring and saved time and stress. His even and kind demeanor made a difficult time much easier to navigate. I would recommend Mr Banfe... to anyone who is facing issues that require a fair and effective family law expert.

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...t. We sat down and Peter spent over the next hour listening to my issues involving a restraining order my wife had signed against me. I’m permanently disabled and have mobility issues and was removed from my home of over 20 years where I spent the last several years basically in bed due to my illness. Peter got the restraining order dismissed and I immediately filed for divorce as my wife made it known that was what she wanted. From our first meeting regarding the divorce filing Peter was always worried if I was comfortable and that he could come to my home where I was staying if it was to much for me sitting in his office. Peter always had my best interest at heart and always made sure our meetings were meaningful and to the point so I didn’t have to keep coming back to his office. Well needless to say the issue with my wife was resolved without me even having to sit in a courtroom all day and testifying in front of the judge and I felt I received a completely fair and outstanding outcome to a horrible situation. I’m a retired LEO and also retired from my second career because of my disability as an upper management employee in Corporate Security for a major international business. Knowing and working for attorneys I felt Peter treated me with respect and was very professional throughout the entire divorce proceedings. Peter’s fees were extremely reasonable and worth every penny I paid him. I was relieved when the case was finally resolved and if it wasn’t for Peter I think the case would have continued to drag on for many more months and with me being ill was making my daily life miserable. If anyone ever needs a professional, personable and easily accessible attorney who has your best interest as his main objective Peter would be highly recommended by me. Thank you Peter you brought some stability back into my life so I can deal with my illness instead of worrying about what I was being put through.

Thank you for your comments. I strive to be as accessible and accommodating as I can depending upon the situation. With so much uncertainty in the process, I feel like I can control making myself available to my client and can fully explain what is happening and what should be expected. I am glad you felt that you were heard through the process and pleased with the outcome. I also strive to keep the fees as reasonable as possible in light of the circumstances. I am glad I was able help you get some stability back in your life and wish you the best moving forward.
