Wish I found Art sooner

I love Art and Sue. Art can be gruff sometimes but he's a great lawyer who will get the job done. Most people don't realize - divorce law in orange county is a RACKET. Ninety percent of the lawyers don't give a crap and will charge you tens of thousands of dollars for NOTHING. Art and his wife Sue r...eally care about their clients and won't overcharge you. I went through like 6 lawyers before settling on (and keeping) Art. I wish I'd found them sooner. If you read this: Art - thank you for doing battle for me. And winning my case. And Sue - thank you for caring about me and my situation. I always felt better about everything after talking to you.

Protects his clients

Art has been my attorney for over 5 years. Having an ex who is stubborn, my case has been long, drawn out, and extremely difficult (everyone has rights). During this time, I have come to learned that there is a process to the legal system that is complicated and I am very thankful that Art has been t...here to fight for me and my children. His knowledge of the law and his strategic sense has protected us and given my children immense support. He fights for what is right. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking child custody, support, or divorce issues.

Great attorney

Hired Art for divorce & child custody. Art worked diligently for us, & always showed great care & compassion. Always worked for the best interest of me and my child. The marriage ended, but protecting the child & her rights were super important Art & I. Art is an advocate for children, in my case div...orce, but in all cases the child is of utmost importance to Art. If you have an issue that involves juveniles, Arthur LaCilento is the attorney for you.

A fighter that you want on your side

I had been previously divorced and had been taken to the cleaners. I was unaware of how bad I had been taken advantage of by my first attorney and my ex until I hired Mr. LaCilento. He came in, cleaned up the mess, and went to work changing the custody agreement and deficiencies in child support. Thi...s ultimately extended and increased my child support payments. He also went after arrears which was to my benefit. He and his wife make a great team. They went to bat for me, educated me on the law, and utilized doctors reports and past history to obtain child support for my adult special needs child. At times I felt discouraged and defeated, but Mr. LaCilento assured me this was a stepping stone and would benefit me in the long run. It took 2 years, but he was right. He was fair on the price for his services and worked with me on payments. I am eternally grateful to him and would highly recommend him to anyone seeking a divorce or family law attorney.

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.
