Monmouth (Divorce)
I am writing this review of Vince DeLuca to help anyone who may be considering hiring him as a collaborative divorce attorney. I hired him in that role back in 2010 when collaborative divorce was still relatively uncommon in NJ, yet he already had a great deal of experience at that point.
The main point I want to convey is that I am very glad I hired Vince, and I highly recommend him. The reasons for that are trust, his capacity to put my son's needs first, and his ability to understand and support me in some unusual situations.
Trust is very important to me in all relationships, but given the importance of this divorce for my son and me, it was a top priority. After a quick look at the Villani DeLuca website, I worried that they might be too assertive or corporate for me. But I was wrong, and I am glad I took the time to meet Vince.
After his help with a successful divorce, I have had three other occasions to contact him for guidance, and each time my trust in him has grown.
One of the main reasons I trust him is his capacity to think first of the needs of the child. He has worked as a mediator and has children of his own. As a result, there were times when he guided me to back off or adjust my requests, and other times when he encouraged me to ask for more to maintain an appropriate balance for our son. This was really critical for me, because I wanted to make sure that whatever actions I took were in the long-term best interest of our child.
Each time I contacted Vince, I felt like I had an unusual situation he had likely never encountered before. In most cases, he confirmed that it was new for him. Yet despite those challenges, he proved that he could easily adapt his vast experience to my specific situations. He never judged me, and I always felt genuine caring from him, especially for my son and also for my ex.
For these reasons and more, I highly recommend Vince DeLuca as a collaborative divorce attorney. Best of luck to you on your current challenges.
I highly recommend Vincent DeLuca as a collaborative divorce attorney. I hired him back in 2010 for a collaborative divorce, and his involvement helped make it a success. He was already skilled in that area of law at the time, despite it being new to many people in NJ.
In a collaborative divorce, both lawyers become part of the team, yet in private, they still offer guidance to their clients. So I wanted a lawyer who was both a team player and a straight shooter. If I was asking for too much, I wanted him to tell me, and if I was not holding a fair line, I also wanted to know. Throughout the process, he offered that kind of honest guidance, and he helped keep our son's needs front and center.
He also has skills as a mediator, and it was clear to me that he truly wanted what was best for our son. Vince is also capable of being assertive and seeing through tactics and posturing. I certainly did not want a typical divorce battle, but I want to be clear that if I had faced one, I would also trust that Vince could help protect me from those pitfalls.
In many ways, he offers a great blend of all of those skills. He is caring, experienced, creative, and tactful. Above all, he earned my trust at a high level. I ended up contacting him three other times and referring a handful of friends to him.
I wish you luck on your current challenges and recommend that you consider a consultation with Vince to see if he is a good fit for your needs.
