Thorough and helpful

I went to see Peter over my questions regarding child support. He answered all my questions and thoroughly reviewed my paperwork. He put my mind at ease. Even though it was only a consultation, he advised me what to do, ultimately saving me money and giving me peace of mind.

A Consummate Professional

Peter has handled two entirely separate cases for me and for my family. In both situations, courtroom appearances were necessary, one out of the NYC metropolitan area. Peter provided excellent advice, made astute observations and achieved the hoped for outcome both times. He was always available f...or questions and charged a fair fee without surprises. I'd enthusiastically recommend Peter to anyone I know with a need for legal services in his fields of expertise.

Excellent Attorney

Mr. Cedeno was very honest during the initial meeting. He took me through all the steps of the process that would take place. He was very understanding of the situation and was very kind regarding all the emotions that were involved. Mr. Cedano walked me through the time frame of the process and w...as very honest about everything. There were no surprises or hidden numbers on the cost. He was very courteous and professional at all times. I would highly recommend Mr. Cedano for your legal needs.

Can't say enough good things about Peter's legal expertise

Mr. Cedeno is such a hard working and diligent attorney. He has worked feverishly to advocate for my best interest in court and has generously donated more time than I could compensate him for. I highly recommend him for all legal services.

Super and the Best Divorce Lawyer, the one who always bring you in your comfort zone.

  For me,  Peter L. Cedeno is truly the best among the rest. Have been with so many lawyers but never came across anyone like him before.   My Divorce was very stressful and emotional for me because I wanted to get remarriage. Initially my divorce was pretty simple. It was an uncontested divorce b...ut my ex-lawyers made it miserable for me. Usually an uncontested divorce is granted within 6 months and cost you with in $2000- $2500. I filed my case in March 2013 with my ex lawyer and he overcharged me like $5000 plus. Along with that due to his unprofessionalism, my case was rejected on March 2014 i.e. after one whole year. At that time, I fired him. Due to him, my Divorce had so many implications that could have affected my life after the divorce in so many negative ways. I extended my remarriage date twice because of reassurance by my ex lawyer. So, my in-laws gave me a dead line because they thought I am playing around.  Therefore, at that time, I hired Peter L. Cedeno. I found his profile on avvo.com with highest rating of all i.e. 10. I explained him all about my case and how important is it for me to get a divorce within 3-4 weeks time. Peter L. Cedeno took on my case and ensured me that I would be getting a divorce within a month. He said he will charge me $2000.   During this time, my ex-lawyer went against me and made my case more complex. Peter L Cedeno is very knowledgeable, professional, blunt, honest, doesn't seem to take himself too seriously when appropriate (you need humor in these circumstances, really, you do), and is willing to do what is necessary for the client. He did explain me the process thoroughly each time and maintained communication in timely manner. He comes off confident about his work but he has a strong work ethic so it's rather legitimate and not just a smoke screen (like my ex's choice in attorney). Here, I want to give my respect, gratitude to my attorney Peter L Cedeno. I know you are the best attorney that I have came across. I really admire the work and effort that you put forward in my case. Peter L Cedeno and staff went with me to the court twice and didn't charged me any extras . He only charged me $2000 at start of my case and nothing else. A part from that Peter L. Cedeno even answered my calls/emails on weekends. Due to your dedication and sincerity, I was able to get divorced and hence got remarried. Today, I am leading a happy married life and it's all because of Peter L. Cedeno. I highly recommend him!
