Posted by Charles | October 05, 2014 | Wrongful Termination

My Best Advocate

After several failed attempts to find a lawyer to represent me (a 60 years old <at the time> wheelchair bound city planner) in a wrongful termination by my municipal employer, I found Jacci Vigilante and her excellent supporting legal team -- who was willing to take on this David vs Goliath challenge.... Jacci and her team have proven to be consistently responsive to my questions and concerns regarding the litigation, communicative and collaborative with me in best stating my case before the court. thoroughly researched the issues, shown compassionate understanding of the damages done to my career, finances, and physical as well as emotional health as the result of this termination and nearly 4 years of litigation, and a staunch advocate in my efforts to get an equitable settlement. Although I know that I am not her only client, every contact that I have had with Jacci Vigilante and her team has shown me great respect for my individual client circumstances and needs. With her leadership and dedication, I am confident that we shall prevail in the courts, and that I can resume a normal life soon. I couldn't ask for a better advocate, and have/would recommend her to anyone needing great legal assistance and representation. At the risk of being misconstrued, I would happily say "There ain't no justice, like Vigilante justice!"

Great Attorney

Jacqueline was very informative, and kept me up to date as her client. She's very knowledgeable about facts regarding cases. I would recommend her to anyone.

Great Service for great cost

I first went in for a consultation with Ms. Vigilante and asked her to review the facts and let me know if she thought I even had a valid case. I was willing to pay for the time, but did not want to pursue a lawsuit if she thought it would be a futile effort. Jacci reviewed all the information I init...ially provided and we determined I had a case, a case worth fighting for and close to my heart. She helped me do all the paperwork filing and kept me informed of everything that was going on. She prepared me for what could take 3 or more years and what that would entail. She never sugar-coated anything. She was honest and presented the facts. She also told me to listen to what she said and if I followed her direction, we would be better prepared. Any questions I had, she answered immediately. If she was unavailable, she returned my phone calls within the day. I always felt like I was a priority. I followed everything Ms. Vigilante told me. I also told her that if I was offered a settlement that she thought was acceptable, to tell me to take it. I had faith in everything she told me. She had great knowledge of the case law and how it pertained to my case. All in all I had a great experience.

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.
