Best Family Law Attorney in NYC

I was referred to The Firm Peter L. Cedeno & Associates by another high caliber senior attorney that handles our corporate/compliance legal affairs at my company to represent my custody, visitation, and child support modification case of my 4 and 7-year-old boys. Upon my initial consultation, I was t...horoughly impressed with Mr. Cedeno for several reasons. He listened intently to the history surrounding my case, concerns regarding my 2 boys, and reviewed the supporting evidence I provided to substantiate my claims. Mr. Cedeno explained in depth the family laws in the state its precedents of previous cases and identified the pertinent facts warranting the initiation of my case in Superior Court. Throughout the 27 months of my contested custody case, from initiation to the final hearing, Mr. Cedeno never ceased to advocate for me and my boys every step of the way! He exhibited the utmost professionalism/savvy in all correspondences and in the courtroom at each hearing. This was particularly evidenced in the seven-hour long temporary hearing where he presented the facts and remained focused, which resulted in me obtaining full physical custody on a temporary basis. Mr. Cedeno continued to represent me in the highest regard over the next two years and kept me abreast on important updates and information in a timely manner. Ultimately, the temporary order was upheld and I am now the primary physical custodian. I know the outcome of my case would not have resulted in the same success if I hired a different attorney to represent me back in when all started. I entrust Mr. Cedeno expertise for not only matters pertaining to me but to all my family and friends as well.

I received ALL I wanted from the tumultuous separation and got full custody of my little princess,Thanks to Mr. Peter Cedeno and staff we are happy as never before without worries, We are forever grateful and indebted, Peter L.

Great Lawyer!! Safed my Life!!

Mr Peter L. Cedeno is a rare breed attorney. Mr Cedeno exemplifies everything you will ever want in a lawyer. I fired a renowned divorce firm for bringing me to the brink of losing my case, and then hired Peter L. Cedeno & Associates Law Firm after reading glowing reviews on Avvo. Mr Cedeno picked up... the pieces, marched into court, and dismantled the high powered opposition attorneys my ex hired utterly. It was like watching a lawyer in a TV drama go to work. Amazing! Hire this fabulous trustworthy lawyer. Because of him, I have full custody of my children.

Great attorney!

I hired Peter for my divorce/custody suit. Throughout the entire process, He was always available for any and all questions I had. I was never in the dark as to the current situation and conniving motions by my ex husband and his team of advisers/private investigators/attorneys and legal assistants...,eight in all. Peter was always honest and forthcoming with all information. At any given time, I knew that he had my children's best interests in mind and heart. Peter was always sensitive and sympathetic to my situation. I never doubted his abilities during the entire process, very very intelligent handling of the law in and out of court. I received all I wanted from the suit and above all custody of my children. I would definitely recommend Mr. Peter Cedeno to anyone in need of the very best Divorce/Custody Lawyer one can get.

Beats The Big Firm Lawyers

Peter Cedeno goes up against the big firm lawyers, outworks them and out-thinks them. Tough case, complex facts, emotional tinder box ? Then Peter and his team provide all the confidence you need. My experience over many weeks was consistently top quality.
