I live in a great community in New Jersey, where I am actively involved in my community. My wife and I met in high school, went to college together, have been married for over 25 years, and plan to grow old together. We have three beautiful daughters who, as I accept, run my life! I have held several local positions in my town, always staying involved to help others, such as a member of the Chamber of Commerce, the Rotary club, I have spent time as a baseball, softball, basketball and soccer coach, a member of the YMCA Board and Soccer Club Board. I live and practice law by the theory that if you do right by people, you will do well. This means I take the time to explain to my clients the details of their case, how it is progressing, and the options they may be able to explore. My integrity, high standards, morals, and honesty have made me a caring and skilled attorney who has earned respect from my colleagues as well as my adversaries. I am here to help you. I will offer an honest and fair evaluation of your case up front and discuss whether I believe your case is worth pursuing or if there is an alternate course of action that may provide you with better closure. In trying to produce the best outcome for your situation, I treat you like I would treat my own family. To me, you are more than a client.

I utilize the depth of my many years of relevant experience to assist people to transition into their new life and thrive during an otherwise trying time. I do this by reasonably resolving matters through settlement and, if necessary for achieving the correct result, litigation. I am highly professional, respectful, sensitive, and discreet to the private and delicate nature of people's lives inherent in these types of legal proceedings. I am successful because I listen to you. I have many referrals built up since my admission in 1992. You can also feel confident and assured knowing that if the time for litigation exists in your life because of an unreasonable adversary, I am up to the task and will help you. Judges respect my honesty and ability to reasonably advocate for my clients. If that time has arrived for you and your situation in life, help yourself move on with your life. Call me today for a free initial consultation and discover why over 12,000 people since 1992 have trusted and turned to me to consult, represent, or otherwise advise and assist them in their legal matters. Very few attorneys can assure their clients that they have "personally" been involved in over 12000 family law and legal matters, but I can. Such experience teaches practicality and wisdom. The Law Office of Aniello D. Cerreto, Esq. puts clients first. Learn the benefit of my vast experience. I often assist clients "less expensively" than many of the other larger, higher overhead and thereby more expensive, law firms. I pay attention to the details and perhaps most importantly, unlike many lawyers, I will both take and return your phone calls. I help people. Let me help you.
