Peter Ambrose Law Office LLC - Fairfield, Connecticut

Peter Ambrose is a Dinosaur that should have retired over a decade ago. He is an alarmist and cannot get out of his own way and completely desensitized to the stresses that go hand and hand with purchasing a home. If looking to buy or sell and when seeking legal advice run as far away and as fast as you can! There are much younger much more versatile attorneys out there that are clued in to today’s markets and types of clients. Attorney Ambrose the 70’s and 80’s were along time ago, I hope you start to consider the benefits and joy that can be had in retirement!

Peter is a very rude and disappointing closing attorney.

Peter’s office was very negligent as they received my home deposit cashiers check, signed for it and “lost” it. To put things into greater perspective, I sent the check 3 1/2 weeks before closing and they never mentioned not having the check.

On my closing day, I was forced to wire additional money (thousands of dollars which was totally unexpected), in order to close. If I did not have the funds readily available, I would not have been able to close on my new home.

In lieu of their mistake, my attorney asked Peter to cover the difference in what was already paid (via cashiers check) so that my total amount due would match what I was initially asked to bring to the closing table. Peter didn’t budge, even though his office was at fault for neglecting to add my check to my profile and ultimately they lost the check.

During closing, after wiring the necessary funds, I explained to my attorney why my bank could not void the cashiers check for 90 days. That means the unexpected money I was forced to wire in addition to what I already paid was out of my account and I will not be able to retrieve it for 90 days. With that, I asked my attorney to ask Peter if they could return the lost funds and issue a promissory note/ promise to pay which I was happy to sign, but Peter refused.

A week after closing, I called Peters office and spoke to Rachel. I asked Rachel if my check was found, she said “no” and transferred me to Peter. While speaking to Peter, I mentioned issuing a promise to pay (again), he told me he is not willing to do any cash advances, I then told him how much of an inconvenience his negligence has been and instead of finding a solution to the problem he created, he said, “I am not supposed to be speaking to you!” and hung up in my face. Truth is, closing was complete so he had every right to speak to me and he should have made an effort to right his wrong.

With all that being said, Peter is a disgusting closing attorney and extremely unprofessional. I am still in absolute disbelief and I highly recommend exploring other closing attorney options. If their office can lose money, they can most certainly lose sensitive information, it’s a shame!

A fantastic Lawyer. He helped us in buying our home and really made sure we were safe. He put up boundaries with the banks and sellers to keep us safe where we didn't know we needed it. I highly recommend Peter and would use him again and again.

Attorney Ambrose recently helped us purchase a home. We worked very closely with his parelegal Dawn and she was extremely helpful and always on top of everything throughout the process. We had a great experience with his office as a whole, and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a lawyer.

Peter is a fantastic person very nice but he is at a stage where he is not mentally fit to perform his job and that’s a concern when you seek legal help . The office is straight out of “ Brazil” a British movie from the early 80 ‘s . You ar simply 50 years or more back in time ! Peter represented the buyer of a house I sold in 2014 and I wanted him to help me with 2 transactions but I it was very clear to me that he was not fit for his job anymore . It’s best for him to enjoy a happy retirement but unfortunately this is not an acceptable standard for anybody who needs legal help so it’s an office to completely avoid

My husband and I sold our home in the midst of Covid, the first sale was withdrawn, only to come back and unable to close. We had to once again put our house on the market; without Peter, we would have been lost. He guided us through the entire process. We are forever indebted for his guidance!

I was referred to Mr. Albert Strazza by a dear friend and I cannot thank her enough. Mr. Strazza was very prompt in responding to my call and in delivering great service. I will certainly recommend him to my family and friends.
