Mr. Zanolli has maintained a successful law practice for over 33 years. He uses the knowledge gained during these years of experience to provide clients with targeted representation designed to solve their specific legal problems.

Victor is an honest, dependable legal resource dedicated to helping people find the best solution for their complex situations. 

Whether volunteering for community-based fundraisers and nonprofit events, or coaching youth sports, Mr. Zanolli has demonstrated a continued investment in our community. Mr. Zanolli has also had extensive experience in real estate matters as a real estate broker. Victor was also appointed as a Magistrate in 2014 at the 52-1 District Court.
