"Vincent Bonazzoli is an Estate Planning Attorney who most notably truly cares about his clients. Vinnie thrives on relationships with his clients, their families and other professionals. To that end, Vinnie heads up the Client Care Academy, as its founder, training other estate planning professionals how to care for their clients by making sure that they not only have the best estate plan but one that works because it was properly funded, maintained and updated as needed over time. The Client Care Academy is unique. It not only educates estate planning professionals on how to care for their clients, but it encourages strategic networking among the profession advisors of each client. Vinnie has an impeccable reputation with other professionals as an excellent lawyer, a man of integrity and a true expert in estate planning such that other professionals collaborate with Vinnie to obtain the best result for their clients. I highly recommend Vinnie to any potential client."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
