A great advocate

Art LaCilento is a great advocate for his clients. He will fight for what is right and he will also be honest and let the client know what can't be done. He is a good Christian man who lives by Biblical principles to fight for what is best for his client. My ex made outrageous demands in the settle...ment and Art said, "... I will be committing legal malfeasance if I were to let you agree to this." I negated the demands, and 2 weeks later we had a settlement that best benefited the child and me. A client cannot ask for a better advocate nor have a better fighter for what is right.

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.

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.

LOOK NO FURTHER! Best lawyer!

First, I would like to say if you are reading reviews for an attorney such as Art, that you are probably feeling worried and have some very difficult times to work through. Rest assured that you do not need to Search anymore. I understand how this feels and was there as well, I spent hours and... days researching and reviewing lawyers to find the most skilled help I could. I had two previous lawyers and I truly wish I had Art and his expertise to begin with. The law he specializes in requires a truly unique knowledge, a heart of gold, and a man that will fight for what matters the most! I was terrified and in the most difficult time of my life. I was blessed to find Art as a referral from another attorney, Shaun McMillan. There is nothing more important in this world than my family. I spoke to Art and his wife Susan at length prior to retaining. I felt comfortable and entrusted them throughout this process and they were with me every step of the way, with a true dedication and focus to me as a client and my needs. Art is a fighter, and he is a kind man that does not allow anyone to push him around. Like many other reviewers have said, if he believes in you he will fight for you.! Also, he is honest and will tell you the truth. If he knows you are wrong he will tell you. I cannot say enough about the integrity and compassion this firm exudes. Art is the best attorney I have ever had and the only attorney I will ever need to retain!

Best genuine lawyer ever

I hired Art over a year ago. Him & his team sue & virdie have been a blessing in mine & my childrens lives. I have had everything from familt to civin & criminal court. Art has been there 100%. Trust me when i say a lot of court dates. Art has won every single case. He is an amazing man i can never t...hank him & his team enought. God has blessed me with them when i had no family to turn to for help. This law firm is now a piece of my heart i consider them a piece of my family forever. My advice if you have a case big or small Art is the man. He doesnt take you're money to fail. He goes in full force 100% everything hes got & more to win you're case. I have great respect for this man
