A FIERCE Litigator!! The Very Best with Decades of Experience

I was referred to Mr. Lacilento by a woman who leads pro-parent (anti-DCFS) advocacy groups and she's proven to know her stuff, without a doubt. Art has been described as a fighter many times and having seen him in action, there is no question that that is exactly what he is. After hearing all the ...atrocious lies and twisted truths about me as presented by the opposing counsel, I didn't think my daughter and I had a chance in the world at having the allegations dropped. He proved me wrong. He's AMAZING. LET HIM DRIVE. He knows what he's doing and everyone in these courts knows and respects him. He had me and my family's best interests at heart at every turn and I believe he will do the same for you.

Top choice Attorney

When I retained Mr. LaCilento I needed the very best. I was referred to Mr. LaCilento by other top attorneys and I was told that he was the best lawyer in juvenile dependency. He was extremely dedicated and always professional. He was open to listening to me and I completely trusted him with my case.... He also helped me to stay focused in a very difficult time. We went to court numerous times and I felt that I had excellent representation. We actually went to trial 4 times and each was a great experience. I felt that Mr.LaCilento was very well prepared and his focus was entirely on my case. All of Mr. LaCilento's office staff was always very helpful and sincere. Susan, in particular, is amazing and very knowledgable. I would recommend Mr. LaCilento to anyone who needs the very best expertise and an attorney with true dedication to fight for them in the Juvenile dependency system.

Highly recommended!

We retained Mr. LaCilento as our attorney a little over a year ago. He is an extremely dedicated and highly efficient attorney who worked very hard on our case. He is very knowledgeable of the laws and procedures and it was amazing to see him utilize his expertise in court. Mr. LaCilento always ke...pt us informed and was responsive to our questions. We strongly feel that Mr. LaCilento, as well as his staff, put their hearts and souls into our case. We thank Mr. LaCilento for his excellent representation to our family and highly recommend him as an attorney.

Best Juvenile Court Attorney in Southern California

Art is in my opinion the Top Juvenile Dependency Court Attorney in Southern California. He came highly recommended by my previous Family Court Attorney's, who were also great, and he exceeded all of my expectations. He is a highly experienced litigator and takes on the most difficult cases all arou...nd Southern California. I personally witnessed other Juvenile Court Attorney's asking Art for advice outside of the Court and during the litigation of my case in three different courts it was clear that everyone in these court respected him. Juvenile Court has a very unique set of laws, which makes an experienced Juvenile Court Attorney a must if you find yourself in these Courts. Art is not only experienced, he is hardworking, and very compassionate. He is known as a tough litigator, but opposing counsel respect him as he is always ethical. Many times Juvenile cases have criminal, family, and appellate court components. Art is experienced and adept in all these courts, and is especially valuable in these situations. Many attorney's specialize, while Art is able to adeptly navigate all these court systems. My family and I owe Art a debt of gratitude for helping us during a very difficult time in our lives. If you are in a difficult legal situation, give Art a call, I promise you that you won't regret it.
