“Vacanti Shattuck Finocchiaro Attorneys was the best choice I could have made when looking for an attorney that would protect the best interests of my children and myself. It was clear from the first meeting that they had the experience and knowledge to make sure we were protected. Chris is very precise in his understanding of the outcome that you want and will work towards that goal. I searched several attorneys in the area and no one impressed me more than him and his staff. His staff is very knowledgeable and helpful to get quick answers to your questions. Hands down the best family law attorney in the area.”

“Chris Vacanti is in a class of his own. My experience with Chris and his paralegal Kathleen was completely outstanding. Divorce is extremely difficult and some attorney’s will milk it and cause more drama. Chris and his team worked hard to reduce the cost and limit the difficult exchange during the divorce process. My case needed to go to trial. Chris absolutely destroyed the other attorney during the trial. Chris’ prep work and litigation skills are incredible. He and his team are who you want on your side.”
