Mr. Luke Ciciliano

Out of all the attorneys I have known who handle family law matters I would recommend Mr. Luke Ciciliano. What I appreciated from Mr. Ciciliano the most is that he was always available to take my phone calls and listen to me. He is an excellent attorney and I would recommend him first to any of my fr...einds or family members. I will also be retaining Mr. Ciciliano for any legal matters of my own that may arise in the future.

Not your typical 9-5

Luke Cicliliano has been a real breath of relief in a family law case that has dragged on for the past three years. He is my 3rd attorney on this matter, but the first to really get the job done! He has made himself available at all hours of the day and night seven days a week. Ready with legal advis...e on my personal situation whenever I may need it. He is never in a hurry to get off the phone, spending many personal hours returning calls and answering reassuring emails. I wish I would have found him three years ago! While most attorneys are clock watching minute chargers only caring how much money they are billing for the time spent on your case, Mr. Ciciliano actually takes the time to be sure you understand what is happening every step of the way and exactly what you are being billed for. I've had an attorney that would charge me just for leaving a message with the secretary to have the attorney return my call. I would never get a call back, but I could always rely on a bill for leaving the message. Mr. Ciciliano will actually call me,even on weekends, to be sure I am comfortable and I understand all that is going on and going to happen in court. He has always been honest and forth coming, even if it was not the answer I was looking for, he always told me what to expect, what I should do and what the outcome would be, and he was always proven correct. He has handled my case in an extremely timely fashion and is well rounded enough to have been able to help me on a matter aside from my family court case in the justice court. If I ever need to obtain an attorney again in the future for any type case I definitely know the lawyer I have on speed dial.

Review of Ciciliano and Associates

Luke was very professional and courteous while handling our case. He appears knowledgeable and experienced and assisted to produce a favorable outcome. I would highly recommend using him. However, as he is popularized in family law, he is very busy and sometimes is unable to keep scheduled meetings. ...If you obtain his services, be sure to be proactive on your account and contact his office to schedule appointments with Luke and retain information via phone or e-mail. Overall, I was very satisfied with the service provided and the attention Ciciliano and Associates provided.

Child Custody and Modification

Luke Ciciliano and Associates are VERY good at what they do. I came across his website while helping my husband look for an Attorney to modify his child custody and support with his Ex-wife. I knew from his website alone that he was the one to help us in our horrid situation. We went in for the consu...ltation and he hit every nail on the head, it was like he knew what we wanted before we could finsh speaking. Choosing to have him represent us was one of the best decisions we have ever made for ourselves. He and his staff made us feel welcome and comfortable. They all knew exactly what they were doing and talking about. They kept us informed on everything that concerned our case. They were there for us any time we needed to speak with them about anything. To us they are very special. So at this time we would also like to thank Chris, Theresa, Courtney and Luke. They are all very caring and understanding people that like to help people handle their problems. We would HIGHLY recommend them for legal issues involving family, we will definitely be going back for their help if the need ever arises again. Thank you for your time and reading our review.

Excellent Representation, strongly recommend

Hired Luke for a child relocation case along with my now husband and was very satisfied with his services. Aside from the obvious fact that relocation was granted to us, Lukes knowledge on family law and child relocation were the pivotal factors in settling our case before even having to go before a... judge. Whenever I felt worried or stressed, as most moms would in dealing with such a case, Luke was there to reassure me without hesitation due to his extensive knowledge. I can't say enough about Luke Ciciliano's representation, he single handedly won our case. On top of everything, his fees for his services were extremely reasonable. If you are in need of a lawyer in the Las Vegas area, Luke Ciciliano is the man!

"I endorse this lawyer's work. Luke and I go way back to law school, but we also both grew up in Las Vegas. In law school we took classes together and sometimes studied together. He sometimes made difficult concepts understandable, a sign of keen intelligence. I was impressed that he was putting himself through law school and had been a dealer in town. He has a can-do attitude and instills confidence, but he can also be very aggressive (or zealous), and will fight for his cause without being overly concerned about thinking he has to get along with everyone. If I needed help on an issue, I would call Luke and ask him what he thought. I have also referred clients to him in the past."
