I wouldn't want to go up against her!

I was referred to Ms. Vacchio by a friend. She represented me in a long and bitter divorce and custody battle. She understood that custody of my son was the most important thing to me and I was worried that the courts would lean toward giving custody of my son to his mother. She not only won me custo...dy of my son but she also orchestrated a very fair property settlement. Ms. Vacchio is a very straight talking tough minded person and yet she had a very gentle way of helping me deal with all the stress and drama. I would highly reccommend her services. I wouldn't want to go up against her!

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.
