Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. Divorce is a difficult process even under the best of circumstances. I truly appreciate all of your patience and perseverance throughout. Given all of the uncertainty that takes place throughout, I always strive to keep you as informed as I possibly could during the process. I am happy for you that this is not behind you and I hope you can move forward in a healing way now, but if ever needed, I'll be here.
"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."
