Peter P. Vasilion he's a worthless lawyer I was in CPS Court for something that I completely had no partay in and something he knew I was innocent of and he still failed to help me get my daughter he failed the fight for a DNA test so to this my daughter's been in the system for 3 years since she was the age 5 I cannot see my daughter until she's 18 because of this lawyer he did nothing he brought nothing up when people were put on the stand he said nothing he read things off of a book instead of reading actual facts of the case so therefore I am going to parte and suing Mr Peter for professional malpractice, he refused to inform me of any emotions that could be served within the correct ample time to get DNA test to fight for my daughter he did nothing he never once called me he never once came and visited me he never once wanted to see me nothing I highly do not recommend this guy I'm sure you're going to get some people that say he's great great that's fine fine and dandy. But in my situation he's worthless and by taking my daughter away from me I sure will be coming after you and suing you in the court of law you bet that believe I will I'll be seeing you soon! I was also unfounded for anything against me I have the paperwork again thank you for causing my daughter for having a father in her life I should have known you were a joke the minute I met you I said that when I left actually to my father that you were a joke but I gave you the benefit of the doubt I even had surveillance that I offered to give him in hand to hand that I brought and he told me no you're worthless and again I will be seeing you in court I'm going to sue you for every penny you have and I'm going to make sure you get disbarred because my sister was there with her lawyer and he also said that you did absolutely nothing to help the case whatsoever

Peter was recommended to me to assist with a non-destruct application. The process of handling such an application is complex. Though it took some time to determine the appropriate course of action, Peter maintained communication throughout, providing a clear understanding of our progress. Ultimately, we successfully processed the application, and I am very satisfied with the outcome. Finding legal consultation on this matter in Western New York was challenging, as few attorneys were willing to engage. Finding someone as knowledgeable, willing, and capable as Peter was outstanding. I highly recommend him.

I would rate him as a solid 4.5 as obviously no one is perfect. Mr. Peter Vasilion had to work very hard and for many years in what I am told is pretty unusual. Our case in family court lasted several years due to multiple things including my choice to represent myself for years then COVID-19 & several changes in Attorneys involved. I think he was very straightforward and diligent. Even with these special circumstances, he was doing his best of keeping my daughter's best interest in mind throughout the many ups and downs and various Attorneys that were involved with my case. I would highly recommend Mr. Peter Vasilion. I saw his perseverance and professional dedication on display many times!

Peter helped me resolve a legal issue related to getting my unrestricted pistol permit in Erie County. He is very helpful and knowledgeable about the process and I would highly recommend him.

I’ve gotta say: he has heart- these bad reviews don’t make any sense to me- I only consulted Peter, however, he showed up for me, giving me the best info possible, navigating me toward my family law options, knowing that I was not a paying customer. He looked me in the eyes as a human being, with compassion, confidence and knowledge. He absolutely is someone to trust with your family law case; he won’t blow smoke, has a great reputation across the field and he knows the ropes. He was honest with me and not a jerk like so many others. Yes, he was hard to get ahold of but his assistant, Arriel was extraordinary helpful when that was the case and ultimately he got ahold of me when I needed him to. For those negative reviews- it’s possible that you/they have a hard time with critique-as Peter gave me constructive criticism, but that’s expected. If you are a jerk in your family law case maybe go elsewhere - why waste a good attorney on a jerk of a client.

Hired Peter for a pistol permit denial said he could help me, he took my money and never returned my calls! It’s been almost two years. When someone doesn’t have 5 star rating it’s for a reason. Be aware

Does not answer phone calls in advance of court dates. Came to court and had another client at the same time. Went in without him and met him afterwards. He billed me for the entire time. I have asked for a refund after I paid and have not heard back after many months. Also, talks about our case in the middle of a busy room with no privacy, very uncomfortable. Pick another lawyer. I did.

Atty. Vasilion immediately understood my issue of recertification under the Safe Act. And, provided information that resolved my problem immediately. He fee was very reasonable and affordable. I would give Atty. Vasilion my highest rating.

I hired Peter on a friend's recommendation after my pistol permit was revoked due to a 45-year-old conviction. I assumed I was not going to get my pistol permit back but thought I would give it a try anyways. Peter went to work and wrote letters on my behalf to two different judges getting a relief from the disability and enabling the judge to reverse his order and reinstate my permit. Peter is so professional I would highly recommend him to anyone needing legal assistance.

On August 13, 2019 I called the office and left a message concerning an issue I had with my pistol permit. I was called back the next day by Peter Vasilion, explained the situation of which he stated he could help me. He required a $100 fee to go to the pistol permit office to view my file. I brought a check to his office the following day. After not hearing from him for 2 months, I called the office and was told he would call me back. I never received a call. After several unanswered calls from me, I went to his office and was told he would call me on his progress with my case. A call from him never came. I called again on January 3rd and left a message for him to call me back. Yes, you guessed it, I did not get a call back. I called again on January 9th and was told by a receptionist that he will call me back. Once again, I did not get a call back. I went to the office on February 25th to ask for a refund of my $100 as nothing has been done. I was told by the receptionist that she will talk to Peter and have a check mailed to me by Friday of that same week. It is now March 25th and I still haven't received a refund nor heard from anyone from this firm.

I hired Peter to assist me with a case against my wedding photographer who had not deliver my photographs to me. Peter was very unresponsive - I emailed and called him several times and received no response. Now, I am still without my photos and I wish I would have hired someone else rather than waste my time with Peter. It is unfortunate because my parents have been long time clients and were always satisfied with his work, but I guess my case was not good enough for him. I wish he would have told me from the start that he did not have time to assist me and I would have gone elsewhere.

I would highly recommend Peter Vasilion as a defense attorney. I hired Peter to help me with a DWI. His advice was excellent, he was honest about his expectations of the outcome, and did not lead me into false hope to make me spend more on my defence than necessary. Peter is well connected within the law community, is very personable, and effective. I did whatever he recommended promptly, and was very pleased with the outcome.
