Peter did an excellent job representing us. He is a fair and honest person. Would recommend him not just for family law but any type of law issues.

We were so blessed to have Peter Farren as our lawyer. He is compassionate, knowledgeable lawyer who truly had the children's welfare at heart. Our case was a difficult one but it didn't seem to stress him in any way. He has a second sense about people.

Mr. Farren is clearly an expert in family law. He communicates on a level that is easy to understand, but also truly seems to have my best interests in mind. He not only looks at the big picture, but he is also able to offer up potential solutions that portray his creativity in solving problems. Mr. Farren has helped to make a difficult situation a little easier to handle.

Peter Farren is an incredible attorney who handled my custody case with efficiency, strength, and an honest approach. After an unsuccessful experience with a previous attorney who started my case, I was hesitant and nervous in finding someone new. Multiple people in he area referred me to him, and not only did he pick up where my previous attorney left off, but he was always prompt in handing matters, able to get in touch with, and displayed confidence and a vast knowledge in the process. We were successful in a resolution and I genuinely felt like Mr.Farren cared about my son and I as clients. Kudos to not only him, but also his staff, who were always on top of things and very courteous! I would highly recommend Mr. Farren for your legal needs! Kathryn

Once I came to the conclusion that I was ready to pursue a divorce, my next major step was finding the right attorney that would represent me and my children. I was very clear that Divorce is is a very complicated matter and I needed a great attorney in my team. I read a lot and decided to invest a lot of time researching for the right candidate to hire. I went through several websites and got multiple interested candidates to represent me. I made a decision to myself that I would take the right amount of time to select the ideal candidate and not rush. I was trying to get away from a very emotionally abusive relationship and I needed All the Support I could receive. Once I got all the candidates I probably met close to 20 attorneys. I came to a selection of 5 then 3 and it was the time to make my decision. Their was this one attorney that from the beginning was Precise, Sincere didn't tell me what I wanted to hear but how things were but at the same time he was very positive and talked to me about different possibilities for my case. This attorneys name is Mr. Peter Farren Mr. Farren during my free consultation listened to ALL my questions which I had many ..Patiently and explained me in a very easy way to understand all the legal terms. Mr. Farren didn't rush through my questions or through the conversations. He agreed to meet with me personally and we had a Great and Productive meeting. I was introduced to his Paralegal Linda and I knew he was the one to represent me. Since the day I hired Mr. Farren he Always took my calls, Returned my calls, emailed me back and was on top of my case. Mr Farren actually took couple of my calls during the weekend. Mr. Farren and Linda really care about doing a great job and taking care of their clients in a Professional, Respectful and Timely manner. My Divorce was finalized from the time I served papers until final judgment in 4 months. That's unheard off and I give this to Mr Farren's Efficiency, Expertise, and Knowledge. Extremely Precise and Determined. If you are in the same situation I was, I would recommend you Mr. Farren and you wont be disappointed. Linda is so smart, hard worker and efficient that with Mr. Farren are the perfect team. You cant be in better hands. I want to Thank Mr. Farren and his Team for their help during this difficult times and for always treating me with Respect, and in a Courteous manner. I have no doubt hiring Mr. Farren again if I have too. "

I completely agree with the other one star reviewer on this page. He did not explain anything to me. Everything felt rushed and like he did not take the time to understand my situation. Looking back on it, I am extremely angry with how he handled the situation. My ex-husband was physically abusive (for which I had documentation from the military) and Peter told me that the courts wouldn't care because it was toward me. My ex-husband lived over four hours away and Peter told me that courts wouldn't find it reasonable for anything less than having to meet my ex-husband twice at that distance every other weekend. My ex consistently broke the agreement and harassed me and I received no help. I trusted his advice and after consulting with other lawyers later on, I realized how truly wrong he was on so many counts; I am so angry that the children and I could be in a much better situation now had he done his job properly and had been my advocate. He absolutely did not have my nor the children's best interests in mind. At a time when I was stressed, worried, vulnerable and looking for someone to put my trust in, he betrayed that trust and years later I am continuing to pay for it. The only thing good I can say is that the office was very responsive.

Hired Peter to handle a divorce with kids. Absolutely did not have myself or kids best interest. The custody arrangements was a little tricky due to schedules but he never explained everything to me. Also he cut out the majority of the FL parenting plan without explaining to me all options and ramifications. Left me with little child support and no help with childcare financial help and the father with only 1 day a week. I ended up having to hire a new attorney to help out with a new situation who told me after reading my divorce that she would've have me sign that I was going against her advice if I had signed that agreement with her. Worst attorney ever and would never recommend him to anyone.
