Peter Alfred D'Angelo

My divorce dealt with a very cruel spouse and Pete was very supportive and knowledgeable in my case. Later when I meet my current husband we was dealing with ex-spouse that had kidnapped his children and taken them to another state. Pete was amazing through all of the court appearances and settlemen...ts. We highly recommend Pete for your lawyer needs.

Peter has been awful. So bad that I am filing a grievance with the Michigan Bar! I had to hire another lawyer, firing Peter and requesting my money back. He did not notify me of court (thank God my husband did), he did not show up to court (so I represented myself for my divorce pro-con, he had to be... subpoenaed to court later for not filing a judgement, and then went AWOL again. He lied several times about what was going on and having filed papers when he hadn't. He only returned calls when threatened with a subpoena, but that didn't even work anymore in the end to get out judgement enters (months late). Do not use him! My new lawyer has gotten more done in 24 hours than Peter did in the better part of a year. My case should be done in a couple weeks. If you want a lawyer that will take your money and then ignore you, will never finish your case, and may not even show up to court (if he does it will never be on time), then go with Peter. If you want a good lawyer that cares and does not sit on cases go with Ed Annen...he's been amazing and I'm really grateful my boss ran into someone else at work who happened to have just switched from Peter to Ed for the same reason!

We hired Peter to be our representation in the battle to terminate a mother's rights and adopt our beautiful little girl. *Every time we contacted Peter he returned my texts or phone calls that day and was always willing to work with our schedule to have our meetings. *He always kept us in the know... on any new information and what we needed to be doing. *While in court he fought our battle with ease. He read up on all the information we gave him and used that to our advantage in the court room. *He did what we hired him to do and we are very thankful for that.

I thought Peter would help me "fairly settle" custody, and child support matters based on my initial consultation, so I retained him. BIGGEST MISTAKE NEXT TO MARRIAGE. While in court, Peter never stood up to defend me when her lawyer tried to make me out to be mud (as lawyer's will do while defendin...g females). Not once did Peter discuss in court what I had asked him to. He cowardly neglected speak up on my behalf, and relied on her lawyer to write-up all the paperwork,calculations,and terms for divorce, casually reviewing the documents, and failing to catch the important details the other laywer had "slipped" in. In the end, I was responsible for signing off my assets and custody time, not Peter. He rarely returns calls,and never seems to be available per his rude secratary who states simply "Would you like me to give him a message ?", but yet no call back in weeks ! Peter did not work for me, instead he let the court system, and the other lawyer do all the work while I paid for it. Had I defended myself,this entire process,and outcome would have yielded better results for everyone, including our children.
