How We Help You Move Forward
Collaborative Divorce
In the Collaborative Divorce process, you and your spouse each have your own attorney and agree in writing not to litigate. Our role is to help you get clear on your priorities and make sure your voice is heard—possibly in a way that you weren't heard in your marriage. Instead of pulling you apart, our goal is to help you move forward together. Throughout this process, a team of professionals, including divorce coaches and financial experts, will help you address your emotional, legal, and financial concerns, ensuring a respectful and peaceful resolution based on interests instead of positions.
Mediation
In Mediation, we serve as neutral facilitators, guiding discussions to help you reach a durable agreement. While we don't give legal advice or make decisions for you, we provide valuable legal information to assist in resolving your issues. You can also consult with your own attorneys throughout the process, ensuring you advocate effectively for yourself and have the final agreement reviewed on your behalf.
Pre-Divorce Guidance
Choosing divorce is a difficult decision, and you don’t have to face it alone. Vacca Family Law Group is here to help. Through our Pre-Divorce Guidance, we provide a clear roadmap, outline your best options, and help you minimize risks.
Prenuptial & Postnuptial Agreements
Prenuptial Agreements are documents signed before marriage that help couples clarify their financial rights and obligations in the event of a divorce. They can also outline what rights each spouse will have if the other passes away. The most common reason people seek to sign a Prenuptial Agreement is to protect assets they had prior to the marriage.
Postnuptial Agreements are signed after marriage and serve to clarify financial arrangements and responsibilities in case of a divorce. They offer couples a chance to address their financial rights and obligations as circumstances evolve during the marriage.

Testimonials
I am, of course, very pleased with my experience with you and your team. With all my conflicting and confused feelings around the process, I often had felt like being blind and guided and protected by you. Divorce is for me something very private and the most painful (albeit unavoidable) part of the experience was how "exposed and vulnerable" my private life was when we (sometimes six of us!) had to discuss and analyze it in order to negotiate the best possible outcomes. I am always more than willing to suggest working with you and your team on a more friendly, collaborative way to separate what were once closely bonded lives.
- Collaborative Divorce Client
I am so grateful to have been referred to Vacca Family Law Group. I recently worked with Andrea and Marcos on a prenuptial agreement and am very pleased with the outcome and the process. As someone who knew very little about the intricacies of prenups going in, I was overwhelmed. However the team at Vacca guided me through the process with patience and expertise. They did their best to ensure that I fully understood what I was agreeing to and helped empower me to make informed decisions about my future. Throughout the process I truly felt like Andrea and Marcos had my best interest at heart. They were attentive, responsive and dedicated to achieving the best possible outcome for me. Days before my wedding we executed the agreement and the process concluded with me feeling very confident. I highly recommend Vacca Family Law Group to anyone in need of legal assistance.
- Prenuptial Agreement Client
Stop looking anywhere else. Full stop – hire them immediately. Excellent, professional, and communicative. Marcos is exceptional, and Jamie a pleasure to work with. I would give them 10/5 stars if I could.

- Family Law Client
Working with Vacca Family Law Group was a pleasant experience. Maire and Thom are very responsive; most of my emails were replied within 30 minutes. My attorney, Marcos, is friendly, attentive, and professional. With his expertise in the field, he managed to capture my questions accurately and answered them in great details. From beginning to the end, he was always there to help. If you are looking for non-adversarial family law support, Vacca Law is the one to go for.

- Mediation Consulting Client
My partner and I had the good fortune of finding the Vacca group as we were considering a prenup before getting married. We liked that the firm has the soon-to-be husband and wife work collaboratively to create a final agreement, rather than the traditional back and forth route.
We worked with Marcos as our mediator and over the course of a few sessions he explained to us all of the items that went into our final agreement. He posed to us many questions that served as the "homework" for my partner and I to consider. This process really made clear what was important to us and to each other. Believe this is the key differentiator between Vacca's collaborative approach and other more traditional firms.
We highly recommend Marcos and the entire Vacca group if you are looking for clear and thoughtful guidance delivered in a professional, non-judgmental way. Thank you again
