Honest and trustworty family lawyer

David Zangrilli Jr. has been our family attorney for a number of years. He has litigated some very tough family issues regarding our child's safety and welfare. We could not ask for a more caring, honest, and trustworthy person to represent us and our child. When you have David Zangrilli as your atto...rney, you feel as though you are his only client. We have also referred Mr. Zangrilli to friends who have needed the service of a family lawyer.

Lack of Advocacy in High-Stakes Case

I engaged this attorney for a contested custody case and left the process with serious concerns about how my case was handled. From early on, there was resistance to fully presenting relevant evidence. I was advised to limit what was introduced in court due to time considerations, including commun...ications that I believed were important to credibility and context. In addition, supporting materials such as emails and text messages that could have reinforced expert testimony were not used. During trial, the opposing side’s claims were not consistently scrutinized. Objections were infrequent, and after a lengthy cross-examination, there was minimal redirect to clarify or correct key points. This left portions of the record incomplete and, in my view, allowed certain disputed statements to go largely unaddressed. After I terminated the representation, I experienced delays in receiving my case file, and I ultimately had to take responsibility for ensuring the final court order was submitted. The final outcome had a significant impact on both parenting time and financial obligations. Considering the fees involved, I expected a more thorough and proactive approach throughout the case. I would encourage anyone considering this attorney to carefully evaluate whether this approach aligns with their expectations for representation in a contested matter.

Careless handling on the client

Was recommended to handle my case carelessly gave a case to his associate who was simply uncopetant in Court Room. Took a lot of money no apologie or care.

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.
