Interesting, I met Mr. Cedeno while he was the adversary attorney in my divorce proceeding and again later on an Estate proceeding. Ironically, I became impressed with the Mr. Cedeno’s handling of both cases. Despite being my adversary and showing protection to his client and looking after his clients best interest, I was able to the human side of Mr. Cedeno and his dedication to handle situations in a fairly matter not only for his client but for the best of all. Mr. Cedeno not only stands up for what is fair but is also competent, responsive and understands the importance of providing an excellent quality of service. I have referred Mr. Cedeno to two of my friends and have also had to pleasure of retaining him to represent me on a separate family matter. Based on my experience I can say Mr. Cedeno is thorough in carefully providing thoughtful legal options and emphasizing his client’s rights as well as providing the information needed to make informed decisions. His advice is always sound and rational. Mr. Cedeno does not sugar coat things to his clients by telling what they want to hear rather what the truth is. His no nonsense approach, coupled with his, in-depth knowledge of divorce law, are second to none. He is assertive with his adversaries in reaching a fair and equitable outcome avoiding having to go through litigation whenever possible. Mr. Cedeno’s services are fairly priced and his experience and knowledge combined with his total familiarity of the court system is instrumental in achieving a successful outcome.
I was charged with domestic violence with a protective/restraining order and my wife also filed for divorce with an unreasonable take on all my commercial assets and properties. Mr. Peter Cedeno was able to help me very successfully with all three. I really appreciate the work he did for me. Peter is an outstanding attorney to have by your side specially in times of crisis and uncertainty I would recommend him to family, friends and colleagues.
I was desperately looking for a good attorney, the best I can find. A friend of mine, who was a former client of Peter L. Cedeno and associate's, PC highly recommended them to me and in particular Mr. Peter Cedeno. I am so grateful that she did. After listening to me intensely and seeing my supporting documents Mr. Cedeno explained the entire process to me, along with strategy and the strengths and weaknesses of my case. Mr. Peter Cedeno explained the strategic plan to accomplish my goals.At court Mr. Cedeno executed the plan exactly as he stated he would. Peter promptly returned my telephone calls and responded to my emails. I was notified of all communications between counsel and I always knew what was going on in my case. Peter explained to me what would be occurring at the court hearings and took the time to go over everything again prior to the hearing. I was never caught off guard because Peter always prepared me beforehand. Ultimately, the strategic plan that he came up with worked and I achieved my goals. Peter Cedeno and his staff worked very hard on my behalf and honestly billed me for the time it took to do the work. My experience with Peter and his firm is that they are honest, hardworking, and truly fight for their clients. I recommend her to anyone who is going through a divorce, child support or custody matter.
Mr. Peter Cedeno is an amazing and brilliant lawyer! Before hiring him I did a comprehensive and thorough extensive research/review on over 37 family/divorce law attorneys and firms by asking others that I know got divorced sometime in their life, on Better Business Bureau website, AVVO website and yes Google reviews and his name always came on top of all the rest. I am forever grateful to him and his staff for all that they did on my divorce. From the very first moment I met with Peter, I knew that he was the lawyer I could trust to help me and my little angel.

He makes time for you even after battling in court for his other clients, and does make you feel that you matter to him. When you meet with him, you can see in his eyes that he is truly listening to you, and that you are safe with him. You will see what I am saying when you see him in court fighting for you. Mr. Peter Cedeno will genuinely fight for you to the very end, he is blessed with great knowledge, brilliance and experience. He has seen it all truly as one of his past experience was as a prosecutor in the Kings County District Attorney's Office and no matter what your fears are, he has an answer for all of your questions. All is left is to trust him. Even at the very end of the process, he is there to make sure all the details are taking care of, as he is very vigilant, and he stands behind you every step of the way.

I hired Mr. Peter Cedeno to help me in a complicated divorce and custody dispute with my ex husband regarding my son. During the time of my previous relationship and even after separation my ex husband had intimidated me and dominated any decision made regarding my son. He bullied me and used his financial stature to make me feel that I didn't stand a chance against him when he filed to take sole custody of our son and leave me as he constantly said " in the streets without a nickel to my name and without my son. Always belittling me in the worst possible ways. I went into the divorce and custody dispute feeling alone, weak, confused, anxious, nervous, powerless, and scared due to his constant belittlement but as a mother I would go to any length, at any cost to fight for my precious son. Mr. Cedeno and his staff gave me so much confidence and ensured me that they would be my voice and help me fight for my rights as a mother and that is exactly what he did. I honestly don't believe anyone else could have taken me through this experience as pleasantly and thoughtfully as Mr. Cedeno does; it was as if we were family and he treated all of us with so much compassion and kindness. His ethics and knowledge for what he does are unparalleled. I've never dealt with an attorney with so much heart, yet still such vigor and determination when dealing with a case. Mr. Cedeno kept me strong and focused on the tasks; always communicating with me so I could completely understand with no surprises. Mr. Cedeno was extremely thorough, knowledgeable, compassionate, and honest. Mr. Peter Cedeno did his job and he did it well. Peter was very aggressive while staying very professional in front of the judge and the others. I walked out of the court room feeling empowered and protected. When it was all over, I felt vindicated and all that my ex Husband wished on me was turned around on him!! talk about karma. We won every aspect of the case!! My family cannot ever thank Mr. Peter Cedeno and his staff enough. I recommend Mr. Peter L. Cedeno and Associates to anyone that finds themselves in a family dispute. They will give you the justice you and your family deserve.
Simply the best attorney that represented me in my divorce - chidren custody child support case. I am not much for words but Mr. Cedeno is simply the best!! I received all I wanted and more from the court case. My life could of not been better! Thank you Mr. Cedeno!
I am very excited to write this recommendation and share my experience at Peter L. Cedeno & associates PC! Divorce can be difficult, along with divorce for many comes child custody, alimony, child support, and other complex legal matters that can change your life forever and with the wrong and inexperience attorney on your side it will be disastrous, tragic, devastating and depressing. When one is going through the process of emotions one can tend to get lost and lose focus. I did not want to lose focus, I called various trusted friends and colleagues and was referred to Peter L Cedeno & Associates, PC. Mr. Peter Cedeno was actually the attorney who took lead on my case and kept in contact with me, my dad and loving family every step of the way, and handled all other legal issues for us. Peter is our angel. Unique in every way! Blessings to you, and loved ones always! Mr. Peter Cedeno goes above and beyond to make sure justice is served and that you have your life back intact at the end of this treacherous legal process able to live a very productive and happy life for all of your family to love and share again, specifically our children. I am happy he was on my side through it all and quite relieved Peter was not in my es husband side. Mr. Cedeno combined both consummate professionalism and tremendous compassion in his dealings with us. His legal advice, concerns for the welfare of me and my three daughters, and moral support have made this unfortunate process of divorce much easier than it otherwise would have been. I highly recommend Mr. Peter Cedeno and the firm Peter L. Cedeno Associates PC services to anyone in need of family and divorce law attorneys whom are compassionate about you and your family! Thank you Peter! God bless you and loved ones always! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!!
Peter L. Cedeno law firm associates came into our life when my children and I needed an outstanding and brilliant lawyer the most! When we needed a second chance at living and loving. I don't think anyone enjoys having to deal with the pain of divorce and separation of assets, accounts, properties, other valuable things and most precious of all custody of my children plus child support, the process that is so common to divorce these days, and the very high cost associated with it. One of the only good part of my divorce was having Mr. Peter Cedeno on my side the other was gaining full sole custody of my children and all we asked the court, which we also received. Peter knew exactly what was going on early as I explained certain things to him and that gave me the ability to focus on what I needed to do. We had regular strategy discussions/meetings as needed with the goal of resolving the case as effectively as possible. Mr. Cedeno is only one side of the case, however, the other being so the more difficult opposing lawyers on your ex husband side, the more you need someone level headed and experienced like Mr. Peter Cedeno to get the job done fairly, properly and efficiently. In my experience and that of close friends of mine and people at my company, a number of the divorce attorneys I saw were sharks or tall tale tellers. Mr. Peter Cedeno was professional, ethical, humble and caring, and at times humorous to the point of getting much smiles/laughter out of my children and was also well known in the courtroom. Whenever I asked any legal question, process questions, likely outcome questions at all Mr. Cedeno had the answer for me directly. He was able to share his experience and offer a most likely outcome so that I could decide if I should fight an issue or not based on his advice. In the end, the settlement was essentially what we offered in the first place, it just took my ex that long to realize the promises he was being given by his attorneys were not realistic. My costs were also about less than half of his. I would highly recommend Mr. Peter Cedeno to any unfortunate soul who is facing divorce and need the very best you are able to get to get going at a second chance at living and loving. You will be well taken care of and represented. I wish I could say the process is fair and simple, but that just isn't the case so you need to have someone like Mr. Cedeno on your side. I wholeheartedly recommend him without any reservation.
The law firm of Peter Cedeno Associates saved me when my life was in shambles, in deep debt, emotionally drained and at my lowest time in my life, very confused, and my child custody was in question by the court based on many false and ugly accusations being presented by my ex husband with his lawyers, I was trapped in a contract called marriage that I didn't understand. My dedicated hard life to my ex was going to be used against me in the ugliest and worst possible ways. We had a small business that was generously given to my ex husband hidden 2 year girlfriend and her family. I helped nurture and grow that small business for over 12 years. I needed a divorce, and I needed it yesterday to get our life back. Now I had to get a lawyer, could things get any worse? Yes! I could have foolishly chosen an attorney or firm other than the best Peter Cedeno Associates team. From the beginning they were ready to get to work and tame the savage beast of uncertain helluva divorce and child custody proceedings. I was amicable to doing things cooperatively with the inferno and much drama that my ex husband was throwing at us, but when the outstretched hand was slapped away hard, through no fault of ours, Mr. Peter Cedeno was ready to fight for us! Cooperatively and through aggressive litigation, he was successful at both, it makes no difference to a winner like Mr. Cedeno, he will handle it. Long story short, we were VICTORIOUS TRIUMPHANT AND SUCCESSFUL at all three, the divorce, business separation-division proceedings and custody of my child!!! Thank you ALL at Peter Cedeno and Associates!!
My children's' custody/divorce and joint complex business separation case has been the most trying, exhaustive and draining experience of my life and that of my children. I never thought things can get as horribly dramatically intense as this when you part ways. Apart from the light of my child, there has really been only one other bright spot to the whole experience. Mr, Peter Cedeno. I never (ever!) expected such compassion in a hired premier senior legal counsel. Alternately, Peter never sugar coated the situation and has been my leader, inspiration and true guide on a very complex and time consuming journey. Mr. Cedeno has put me to work mentally, and the work has been hard. But his very matter-of-fact approach to why, and his ability to set the example and pace by working so incredibly hard himself, kept me going. Peter always bought peace, calm and tranquility every time he spoke to us and seeing his outstanding abilities at court. He brought peace of mind to our life at a time we needed it most. An angel from above. Mr. Cedeno explained step by step his strategy and what he expected of us to be able to win. We never felt rushed nor felt it was just a financial gain on his part. Peter was compassionate and wholeheartedly involved as if these were his loving and precious children he wanted custody of. As hard as this has all been, I can't imagine how devastating it would have all felt without this very rare and special person making me feel like they are in my corner from a very genuine place. A most brilliant attorney in the courtroom floor and at negotiating with the system and its complexities. Words escape me to properly express my gratitude for the fact that brilliant lawyers like this really are out there, while rare to find. Mr. Cedeno never cut corners with his efforts and never lost patience with me during a very scattered and overwhelming time in my life. Peter has gone above and beyond for me, to the point of pleasant surprise which is something I so desperately needed going through this! We had a long, extensive child custody trial and he worked brilliantly both in and out of court to reach an outcome in our favor. Again, I'm at a loss to express my gratitude for Peter L. Cedeno & Associates Law Firm world class efforts so instead, I'll recommend Peter and his Firm from the most honest place.... our hearts!.

I was desperately looking for a good attorney, the best I can find. A friend of mine, who was a former client of Peter L. Cedeno and associate's, PC highly recommended them to me and in particular Mr. Peter Cedeno. I am so grateful that she did. After listening to me intensely and seeing my supporting documents Mr. Cedeno explained the entire process to me, along with strategy and the strengths and weaknesses of my case. Mr. Peter Cedeno explained the strategic plan to accomplish my goals.At court Mr. Cedeno executed the plan exactly as he stated he would. Peter promptly returned my telephone calls and responded to my emails. I was notified of all communications between counsel and I always knew what was going on in my case. Peter explained to me what would be occurring at the court hearings and took the time to go over everything again prior to the hearing. I was never caught off guard because Peter always prepared me beforehand. Ultimately, the strategic plan that he came up with worked and I achieved my goals. Peter Cedeno and his staff worked very hard on my behalf and honestly billed me for the time it took to do the work. My experience with Peter and his firm is that they are honest, hardworking, and truly fight for their clients. I recommend her to anyone who is going through a divorce, child support or custody matter.
Mr. Peter Cedeno is an amazing and brilliant lawyer! Before hiring him I did a comprehensive and thorough extensive research/review on over 37 family/divorce law attorneys and firms by asking others that I know got divorced sometime in their life, on Better Business Bureau website, AVVO website and yes Google reviews and his name always came on top of all the rest. I am forever grateful to him and his staff for all that they did on my divorce. From the very first moment I met with Peter, I knew that he was the lawyer I could trust to help me and my little angel. I came to him desperate and confused, and unaware of what legal remedies would help to what ended up to be a very complex divorce case. Mr. Cedeno's experience of over 20 years in family and divorce law was the best fit for my situation. He had an answer for all the issues that came up during litigation. Mr. Cedeno does has the knowledge to handle difficult divorces that include complex assets such as businesses, properties, and other assets. You can count on his extensive experience and knowledge and be sure that he knows the law beyond expectations. He makes time for you even after battling in court for his other clients, and does make you feel that you matter to him. When you meet with him, you can see in his eyes that he is truly listening to you, and that you are safe with him. You will see what I am saying when you see him in court fighting for you. Mr. Peter Cedeno will genuinely fight for you to the very end, he is blessed with great knowledge, brilliance and experience. He has seen it all truly as one of his past experience was as a prosecutor in the Kings County District Attorney's Office and no matter what your fears are, he has an answer for all of your questions. All is left is to trust him. Even at the very end of the process, he is there to make sure all the details are taking care of, as he is very vigilant, and he stands behind you every step of the way. I recommend Mr. Peter Cedeno to everyone who is filing for a divorce, or has a family law related issue. He will take care of you and your family, as his experience will handle cases from simple facts to extremely complex cases. Thank you Mr. Cedeno! I am forever grateful to you all! Mr. Cedeno and his great staff at Peter L. Cedeno & associates PC. My little angel and I will always have you in our hearts and thoughts. The gratitude I have for all of you is far too much to put in words in this review, I am so grateful!. Mr. Cedeno's hard work goes beyond the hundreds of words I wish I had room to write. I would have to write a college textbook to write down all of my thoughts regarding what I feel for Peter L. Cedeno & associates PC ! Thank you, thank you and thank you, and God Bless you!
I hired Mr. Peter Cedeno to help me in a complicated divorce and custody dispute with my ex husband regarding my son. During the time of my previous relationship and even after separation my ex husband had intimidated me and dominated any decision made regarding my son. He bullied me and used his financial stature to make me feel that I didn't stand a chance against him when he filed to take sole custody of our son and leave me as he constantly said " in the streets without a nickel to my name and without my son. Always belittling me in the worst possible ways. I went into the divorce and custody dispute feeling alone, weak, confused, anxious, nervous, powerless, and scared due to his constant belittlement but as a mother I would go to any length, at any cost to fight for my precious son. Mr. Cedeno and his staff gave me so much confidence and ensured me that they would be my voice and help me fight for my rights as a mother and that is exactly what he did. I honestly don't believe anyone else could have taken me through this experience as pleasantly and thoughtfully as Mr. Cedeno does; it was as if we were family and he treated all of us with so much compassion and kindness. His ethics and knowledge for what he does are unparalleled. I've never dealt with an attorney with so much heart, yet still such vigor and determination when dealing with a case. Mr. Cedeno kept me strong and focused on the tasks; always communicating with me so I could completely understand with no surprises. Mr. Cedeno was extremely thorough, knowledgeable, compassionate, and honest. Mr. Peter Cedeno did his job and he did it well. Peter was very aggressive while staying very professional in front of the judge and the others. I walked out of the court room feeling empowered and protected. When it was all over, I felt vindicated and all that my ex Husband wished on me was turned around on him!! talk about karma. We won every aspect of the case!! My family cannot ever thank Mr. Peter Cedeno and his staff enough. I recommend Mr. Peter L. Cedeno and Associates to anyone that finds themselves in a family dispute. They will give you the justice you and your family deserve.
Simply the best attorney that represented me in my divorce - chidren custody child support case. I am not much for words but Mr. Cedeno is simply the best!! I received all I wanted and more from the court case. My life could of not been better! Thank you Mr. Cedeno!
I am very excited to write this recommendation and share my experience at Peter L. Cedeno & associates PC! Divorce can be difficult, along with divorce for many comes child custody, alimony, child support, and other complex legal matters that can change your life forever and with the wrong and inexperience attorney on your side it will be disastrous, tragic, devastating and depressing. When one is going through the process of emotions one can tend to get lost and lose focus. I did not want to lose focus, I called various trusted friends and colleagues and was referred to Peter L Cedeno & Associates, PC. Mr. Peter Cedeno was actually the attorney who took lead on my case and kept in contact with me, my dad and loving family every step of the way, and handled all other legal issues for us. Peter is our angel. Unique in every way! Blessings to you, and loved ones always! Mr. Peter Cedeno goes above and beyond to make sure justice is served and that you have your life back intact at the end of this treacherous legal process able to live a very productive and happy life for all of your family to love and share again, specifically our children. I am happy he was on my side through it all and quite relieved Peter was not in my es husband side. Mr. Cedeno combined both consummate professionalism and tremendous compassion in his dealings with us. His legal advice, concerns for the welfare of me and my three daughters, and moral support have made this unfortunate process of divorce much easier than it otherwise would have been. I highly recommend Mr. Peter Cedeno and the firm Peter L. Cedeno Associates PC services to anyone in need of family and divorce law attorneys whom are compassionate about you and your family! Thank you Peter! God bless you and loved ones always! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!!
Peter L. Cedeno law firm associates came into our life when my children and I needed an outstanding and brilliant lawyer the most! When we needed a second chance at living and loving. I don't think anyone enjoys having to deal with the pain of divorce and separation of assets, accounts, properties, other valuable things and most precious of all custody of my children plus child support, the process that is so common to divorce these days, and the very high cost associated with it. One of the only good part of my divorce was having Mr. Peter Cedeno on my side the other was gaining full sole custody of my children and all we asked the court, which we also received. Peter knew exactly what was going on early as I explained certain things to him and that gave me the ability to focus on what I needed to do. We had regular strategy discussions/meetings as needed with the goal of resolving the case as effectively as possible. Mr. Cedeno is only one side of the case, however, the other being so the more difficult opposing lawyers on your ex husband side, the more you need someone level headed and experienced like Mr. Peter Cedeno to get the job done fairly, properly and efficiently. In my experience and that of close friends of mine and people at my company, a number of the divorce attorneys I saw were sharks or tall tale tellers. Mr. Peter Cedeno was professional, ethical, humble and caring, and at times humorous to the point of getting much smiles/laughter out of my children and was also well known in the courtroom. Whenever I asked any legal question, process questions, likely outcome questions at all Mr. Cedeno had the answer for me directly. He was able to share his experience and offer a most likely outcome so that I could decide if I should fight an issue or not based on his advice. In the end, the settlement was essentially what we offered in the first place, it just took my ex that long to realize the promises he was being given by his attorneys were not realistic. My costs were also about less than half of his. I would highly recommend Mr. Peter Cedeno to any unfortunate soul who is facing divorce and need the very best you are able to get to get going at a second chance at living and loving. You will be well taken care of and represented. I wish I could say the process is fair and simple, but that just isn't the case so you need to have someone like Mr. Cedeno on your side. I wholeheartedly recommend him without any reservation.
The law firm of Peter Cedeno Associates saved me when my life was in shambles, in deep debt, emotionally drained and at my lowest time in my life, very confused, and my child custody was in question by the court based on many false and ugly accusations being presented by my ex husband with his lawyers, I was trapped in a contract called marriage that I didn't understand. My dedicated hard life to my ex was going to be used against me in the ugliest and worst possible ways. We had a small business that was generously given to my ex husband hidden 2 year girlfriend and her family. I helped nurture and grow that small business for over 12 years. I needed a divorce, and I needed it yesterday to get our life back. Now I had to get a lawyer, could things get any worse? Yes! I could have foolishly chosen an attorney or firm other than the best Peter Cedeno Associates team. From the beginning they were ready to get to work and tame the savage beast of uncertain helluva divorce and child custody proceedings. I was amicable to doing things cooperatively with the inferno and much drama that my ex husband was throwing at us, but when the outstretched hand was slapped away hard, through no fault of ours, Mr. Peter Cedeno was ready to fight for us! Cooperatively and through aggressive litigation, he was successful at both, it makes no difference to a winner like Mr. Cedeno, he will handle it. Long story short, we were VICTORIOUS TRIUMPHANT AND SUCCESSFUL at all three, the divorce, business separation-division proceedings and custody of my child!!! Thank you ALL at Peter Cedeno and Associates!!
My children's' custody/divorce and joint complex business separation case has been the most trying, exhaustive and draining experience of my life and that of my children. I never thought things can get as horribly dramatically intense as this when you part ways. Apart from the light of my child, there has really been only one other bright spot to the whole experience. Mr, Peter Cedeno. I never (ever!) expected such compassion in a hired premier senior legal counsel. Alternately, Peter never sugar coated the situation and has been my leader, inspiration and true guide on a very complex and time consuming journey. Mr. Cedeno has put me to work mentally, and the work has been hard. But his very matter-of-fact approach to why, and his ability to set the example and pace by working so incredibly hard himself, kept me going. Peter always bought peace, calm and tranquility every time he spoke to us and seeing his outstanding abilities at court. He brought peace of mind to our life at a time we needed it most. An angel from above. Mr. Cedeno explained step by step his strategy and what he expected of us to be able to win. We never felt rushed nor felt it was just a financial gain on his part. Peter was compassionate and wholeheartedly involved as if these were his loving and precious children he wanted custody of. As hard as this has all been, I can't imagine how devastating it would have all felt without this very rare and special person making me feel like they are in my corner from a very genuine place. A most brilliant attorney in the courtroom floor and at negotiating with the system and its complexities. Words escape me to properly express my gratitude for the fact that brilliant lawyers like this really are out there, while rare to find. Mr. Cedeno never cut corners with his efforts and never lost patience with me during a very scattered and overwhelming time in my life. Peter has gone above and beyond for me, to the point of pleasant surprise which is something I so desperately needed going through this! We had a long, extensive child custody trial and he worked brilliantly both in and out of court to reach an outcome in our favor. Again, I'm at a loss to express my gratitude for Peter L. Cedeno & Associates Law Firm world class efforts so instead, I'll recommend Peter and his Firm from the most honest place.... our hearts!.
