I had a great experience with Costello, Valente & Gentry, P.C., specifically Sharon Gentry.
I could not have asked for a better attorney to advocate for me. Sharon was attentive and patient while listening to my (many) concerns, prompt to return messages, and gave me a sense of relief during a very stressful time with thorough and clear communication. I have referred friends to CVG due to my experience and have the utmost confidence they will have the same experience.
In family law, things can get nerve racking. It is good to know that a law firm such as CVG is out there to make things a little more manageable. I am glad I chose them.

James Valenti took my case when no one else would, he listened to me and never once forgot a detail. He faught for my first ammendment rights, right beside me right up until they dismissed my case. He worked hard spent hours reviewing and writing up all the evidence and necessary examples of why my case was not a case at all! I highly recommend him as well as his firm to handle your case. I can't thank him enough for how much support he showed me through all of this. Before I spoke with james I called at least 10 different law firms including the D.As office just trying to find advice because I had no idea what to do or who to turn to. He was the only one that gave me the time of day. Thank you James Valenti!

I am very pleased with this firm, from the beginning, Mr. Valente was understanding and compassionate to me and my family. He took time to explain and answer our questions and to help us feel comfortable at such a delicate time. Throughout the process he was attentive and helped us feel comfortable and kept us well informed. I would highly recommend Mr. Valente and his firm.
The Costello, Valente, Gentry, P.C. law firm did an exceptional job to support my effort in a personal injury legal matter. Their ability to educate me on what to expect and include strategic staff to support my effort during the legal matter helped me with a successful outcome. In my experience CVG, PC is an exceptional Vermont law firm!

Five stars , perfect firm to work with for estate planning. I worked with Costello, Valente & Gentry on my estate plan. Tom Costello and Jim Valente are very knowledgable and guided me through all the steps in estate planing. I first met with Tom Costello who clearly told me to gather up everything about me in terms of family, household etc. Gathering all that information took some time. When I met with Tom Costello he was very clear on how wills, health care proxy, and directives are done. Following drafts and working with their expert staff, all documents were finished and signed. I highly recommend that if you are looking for guidance in setting your estate plan no matter how big or small give them a call.

Without going into personal details, my case was an employment related case. James Valente and Kevin Rogers did an amazing job, and Reagan always made me feel welcome when I came to the office. The case was settled and I'm back to work. The outcome truly couldn't have been better. Their entire staff was great!

I was represented by Tom Costello and Sarah Sanchez. Tom and Sarah fought hard for me. They always put my needs first, valued my opinion and always were ready to reassure me and calm my nerves. They went above and beyond to ensure a positive outcome. I could not have asked to be represented by a better Law Firm.

James Valente was an absolute life-saver. When a local non-profit that I work at was in dire trouble, James worked behind the scenes, pro bono, on behalf of the non-profit's staff. He worked long hours and late nights and was instrumental in bringing the crisis to a satisfactory conclusion--all because he believed our organization was worth fighting for. I cannot speak highly enough of his professionalism, knowledge, and care for his clients.

For traffic tickets, I would highly recommend James Valente! I live in Virginia (reciprocity state) and was vacationing with my wife in Vermont. In early July, I received a ridiculous ticket from a Vermont state trooper. The ticket was $250 with 5 points!!! If it was just the fine, I would have simply paid it, but the points motivated me to hire a local traffic attorney. Through a recommendation, hired attorney James Valente who immediately went to work. He asked me the pertinent questions and counseled me on how best to proceed. The day before the hearing he called me to go over the details of the case and prepared me to respond to potential questions from the judge. But luckily, it never came to that because the judge dismissed the case!! I couldn't have received a better attorney or a better outcome!! Again, would highly recommend!

The whole office worked diligently and hard for the best possible outcome. They didn't make me feel like just another client, they truly cared about me, and had my best interest at heart. They are all downright wonderful people, and a phenomenal and fierce legal team.

I'm a criminal defense attorney who practices in Manhattan and spent nine years as a prosecutor. I used attorney James Valente as local counsel and he was knowledgeable, responsive, and helped achieve a great result for our mutual client. He was one of the best co-counsels I've worked with.

Many thanks to James Valente. He handled our case with grace, competence and needed humor. As CEO of the Vermont Achievement Center I needed someone who would advocate for our kids and program and speak with the caring, kids first, voice that would truly represent how we feel. he did just that. James voiced our concerns and our cares... he got us the result we wanted and was a pleasure to work. Thanks James

Tom Costello and James Valente represented me in my divorce. It was very nasty and drawn out, involving both children and a family business, and we had a trial. They were fair negotiators and very good on their feet in the courtroom. Most importantly, I trusted them and their advice, and now that it's over, I know that the decisions they made were the right ones.

I highly recommend Costello, Valente and Gentry for the work they did for me and my family. They worked at all hours to ensure my case was handled well. They showed a genuine care for my son and as a result provided him with a new opportuntities. They went above and beyond my expectations and worked with me every step of the way and I would recommend them to anyone.

The highly regarded and experienced CVG law firm recently represented me. James Valente served as my attorney. James took the time to explain all steps of the court process and patiently reviewed various options/strategies with me. His positive attitude and professionalism made him a pleasure to work with. I give James Valente and the entire CVG firm my highest possible recommendation.

If had hired James Valente to appeal a divorce. Although we didn't win the case Jame's legal work on my case was brilliant! Legal costs were within the estimated projection for my representation. If I had hired James in the first place I probably would have won my case.

Having been through a divorce, I am happy to say James Valente and Tom Costello never let me lose sight of the fact that “someday it would all be OK”. As my primary attorney, James was always prompt about returning calls or emails. While a divorce is never perfect, The people at CVG made the experience much easier than if I had tried to do it on my own. In fact the greatest compliment I can give them is that now I feel I can navigate any issues that arise without "needing" to contact them. Besides taking care of me, they also were always careful to make me see how to best handle the situation for my child. The people at CVG never made me feel any issue was unimportant, and because of this I was able to move on with raising my child, and getting on with my life. I am pleased to say that I am represented by professional, thoughtful, and kind attorneys from Costello, Valente, and Gentry.

Finding a quality firm that you can trust is rare — the team at CVG not only exceeded my expectations but ended up costing significantly less than their competition quoted.

James at CVG has helped my family through a number of legal ordeals, and Tom Costello is a stand up guy. One of the true pillars of the community in Brattleboro. I would trust the lawyers at CVG with any legal matter. Great firm that won't jerk you around that has been a part of Brattleboro for over 30 years -- Great people.
