Arthur LaCilento is simply the best

Hands down simply the best. I had the most difficult time in my life in dealing with CFS. After meeting and talking with Art I knew right away he was going to represent me. I retained Art and he did the best job an attorney can do. The outcome was very good. He even went out of his way to contact my ...criminal attorney and gave him some guidance which was very helpful because I felt my criminal attorney wasn't doing his job. I praise Art for going out of his way and doing that me. If you are going with another attorney PLEASE just give Art a call and meet with him before you do so. He will represent you very well like he did for me. Arts prices are reasonable compared to other attorneys I spoke to. The last thing I would like to add is the office personal is great and very professional. GOD BLESS YOU GUYS.

An experienced, passionate and trustworthy Attorney

Mr. Arthur LaCilento represented me in a very complex family law case. I previously had retained a firm in South Orange County that was more interested in the wellbeing of my check book than my legal interest or my family. I immediately retained Mr. LaCilento months before trial. Mr. LaCilento pre...pared all the necessary documents, motions and exhibits in order to prepare for trial in a very short amount of time. He worked diligently and passionately on my case. He would answer my questions and was always available by phone in order to assist me with my case. His positive attitude and outgoing drive resulted in the success of my case. He was always well prepared for court and when we walked into court I knew I was being represented by the "best and most compassionate attorney ever". My family is truly blessed because of all the hard work and dedication by Mr. LaCilento and his staff. He is passionate about his clients and is dedicated to achieving the best outcome and results for each and every one of his clients.

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.
