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.

pitbull in the courtroom

Art is a brilliant attorney. I had the privilege of him representing me in a recent family court case. He is honest and forthcoming on his opinions of what i should and should not do. I was very impressed by his professionalism and competence. In the courtroom he was fierce. he stood up for me as a c...lient when my previous attorney refused to do so. I have already recommended him to several people and will continue to do so without any hesitation.

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 Custody/Dependency Attorney in California

Arthur LaCilento is absolutely the best custody attorney in Southern California. I have hired him twice for complex custody issues, and have been very happy with his results both times. Art is a brilliant, highly experienced and effective attorney, who is very aggressive in the court room; he does no...t give up, no matter the pressure. If you care about your children, this is the attorney that gets results for your family. Mr. LaCilento is a tough attorney who is also fair and has integrity. Various family law attorneys referred me to Mr. LaCilento several years ago when I first hired him; one attorney said he would trust his life in Art's hands. I was not disappointed. I hired him again recently, and once again, he did a brilliant job. It is not easy to find an experience, effective attorney to handle custody issues which are very specialized; many family law attorneys will not go near custody court, as they tell me it is very different from any other area of the law. I know that I am very fortunate to have found Arthur LaCilento, who not only takes care of the problems, but also has integrity and works to help families caught in the complexities of custody court. LaCilento is THE ONLY attorney I would ever hire for these types of issues! Whenever I am asked for a referral for a custody attorney, Arthur LaCilento is the only attorney I recommend. Thank you Art!
