Best Law Firm in NJ!!

We’ve trusted Tonacchio & Compitello as our family law firm for many years, and they have never let us down. Over time, we’ve relied on them for dozens of matters ranging from real estate closings and traffic infractions to small business needs and more. No matter the situation, they consistently del...iver exceptional service and high-quality results. The entire team is knowledgeable, responsive, and truly committed to their clients’ success. If you’re looking for representation you can count on, ask for Dominique, one of the partners—you’ll be in excellent hands.

Supportive and Fighter

Dominique played a big role in my case and the success of what was necessary for my little one and I. She’s very passionate and fights hard for her clients and their needs. She pays attention and is personable.

The only option that you want on your side.

Dominique and her office were consistently professional l, efficient and most importantly supportive. They had my entire divorce wrapped up in six months. There is absolutely nobody else I would want in my corner. She hands down saved my life and helped me create a better one for my children and I.... I had a previous attorney and I've used attorney's before that were nothing short of a nightmare. It is important to find someone that actually cares, and this firm does. Dominique and her staff know the law inside and out and will stop at nothing to make sure you get what you need. I highly recommend!

Unfairly fired

Got fired unfairly as an at-will employee from Walmart and not re-hireable, searched online for an attorney to represent me on obtaining evidence for the reason and my unemployment hearing. First, I had an attorney who supposed to request information from my ex-employer but never got any. Much talk...ing to where my $800 was up, then had to put down more money. Then he gives my case to someone else, smh, but once Dominique Tonacchio took my case she applied great effort on my behalf and helped guide me through the process very objectively. We win my hearing with strong talking points and strong representation.
