Highly recommend Pete Banfe

I highly recommend Pete! I have used his services twice. First time was about 10 years ago during my divorce. The second time was this year, when he was able to get my alimony permanently terminated. Some observations: - Pete is a good guy and very personable - He knows the law, and as importan...tly, he knows the judges and how the courts operate - He will thoroughly prep for litigation, but will seek to negotiate a satisfactory solution without having to go to court - He will be totally honest with you. He will let you know when the law is on your side and when it is against you. - He will let you know the strength of your case and recommend actions to make it stronger - He will inform you of the tradeoffs with proceeding with litigation versus settling - He will listen to your input and answer all of your questions - While he can't guarantee a result, he will try to give you an estimate of the probability of each of the potential outcomes. Sometimes this is dependent on the judge hearing the case I was very satisfied with his representation!

Excellent Legal Attorney

If you are looking for a professional, caring and well experienced attorney then Pete Banfe is your guy. He is very experienced in divorce, alimony and child support issues. He can handle the most difficult spouse with confidence and come up with a strategy to get a great outcome. Being a husband a...nd father himself, he is caring and thoughtful to his clients. During this tumultuous time in your life, you need someone who will treat and care for you as family and that is just what he does. He can help defuse the worse situations. Divorce is not an easy time in anyone’s life, but Pete can guide you and will fight for you to get the result you need. Even when the job is done, he will not forget you. He will be willing to help and listen to your needs long after the divorce. I highly recommend Pete, if you are looking for an attorney who will be thoughtful, caring and supportive every step of the way.

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.

The closing of a chapter

Many years ago, I had the misfortune of going through a divorce and the pleasure of meeting Mr. Peter Banfe. At the time, he was an up and coming divorce attorney assisting my main attorney. Fast forward a few years and I had suspicions about my ex-wife co-habitating with a man, which was against our... original property settlement agreement. After a short period of time, my ex-wife decides to remarry - hence, no more alimony and child support and no need to take her back to court to repeal the PSA. My immediate thought was to contact Peter and I am glad that I did. He sat with me during our consultation and explained the pros and cons of pursuing the direction of my case. He managed the process efficiently and once the marriage announcement was made, he discussed the relevant terms of the PSA with me that required communicating to the court/judge. It was done efficiently and punctually - everything worked out and as for me, I am not only happy at the closing of the chapter, but in the decision to retain Peter for his guidance, his expertise and his consultations.

First off, I appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. I've always appreciated the confidence you have shown in me both during the divorce as well as when issues arose more recently. It was humbling that you sought me out all those years later. I am so happy for you that you can now move on with this matter behind you. Most importantly, I'm glad we were able to reconnect after all those years and wish you the best in the next chapter of your life!

Alimony

I hired Mr. Banfe due to my ex husband filing a motion to eliminate my alimony. My ex has been paying me alimony for years now but wanted to retire but not without a date of my termination of alimony. Pete was professional, studied my case to the fullest, and we eventually went to a hearing in fron...t of the Judge. I was so confident in Pete and Archer and Greiner that when the day of the trial came, I was not a bit worried. Well, instead of termination of my alimony, Pete was able to obtain for me 5 more years! I would highly recommend Pete Banfe for your Family court matters.

I appreciate you taking the time to provide such wonderful comments. I also appreciate the confidence you had in the preparation that you and I both did to get your matter ready for the best possible outcome with the Court. It was truly a team effort!
