About Law Office of Anthony M. Vassallo

I reopened my Manhattan location (near the Empire State Building) so I am available to meet with clients. Please note -- I am only licensed in the State of New York. So if you are not a New York resident, you will have to look for someone else. I can give you referrals to quality attorneys. I am a bankruptcy attorney who has devoted his entire professional career to representing debtors, creditors, and trustees in both corporate and personal bankruptcy proceedings, ranging from individual cases to some of the largest corporate bankruptcy proceedings filed in the United States. I have more than 300 cases filed in the New York metropolitan area. I am experienced in all facets of Chapter 7, 11, and 13 cases, out-of-court restructurings, and refinancing transactions. I regularly appear at court hearings, meetings with trustees, pre-trial conferences, depositions, appeals, and arbitrations. I personally attend hearings at the Manhattan, Brooklyn, Central Islip, White Plains, Poughkeepsie, and Binghamton bankruptcy courthouses. I am involved with a client's case from start to finish. I interview and meet with clients, prepare their papers, discuss what will happen at court, and attend all hearings or conferences. Unlike other attorneys, I do not outsource my work or appearances to anyone else except in rare circumstances. My goals are to help people (a) obtain the best legal result possible, (b) help them understand the legal system and their rights, and most of all, (c) receive the fresh start the bankruptcy laws provide. I understand that if you need my services, you are not at your best, so I am there to advise and comfort you as we determine an appropriate course of action. My firm was recently listed as one of the top 10 bankruptcy firms in Brooklyn, NY.

I hired Anthony Vassallo in August 2025 for a bankruptcy case and paid him $2,500 in full. After that, communication basically stopped. Getting him on the phone or getting a response became nearly impossible. Meanwhile, I’m dealing with a serious legal matter that requires attention. Fast forward to March 2026. I have a court hearing coming up. I text him that Monday to confirm the date. His exact response was: “Let me confirm.” That was the last time I ever heard from him. He completely disappeared before my hearing. No follow up. No call. No explanation. Nothing. It got so bad that the Bankruptcy Trustee had to step in and email him because I was calling her trying to get answers and he wasn’t doing anything on my case. I’m including that email below with her name redacted: “Mr. Vassallo, See the below email from your client. As previously advised, he calls my office several times a day. As he is a represented party, I have not returned his call. Please speak with your client and promptly take the necessary steps to move this case forward. Sincerely, [Name Redacted] United States Bankruptcy Trustee” Even after THAT, he still didn’t respond or take action. Let that sink in. A federal bankruptcy trustee is telling your attorney to do his job… and he still does nothing. I had no choice but to hire a new attorney and move my case entirely because I could not risk my situation any further. The only time Anthony Vassallo finally responded to anything was in April 2026 when my new attorney contacted him and forced him to release me as a client. That’s it. To make matters worse, my new attorney looked him up and asked me if I had actually read his reviews. I said yes. I was then told one of the positive reviews appears to be from his own wife. That alone should tell you everything. Also worth noting, my new attorney couldn’t find much of anything on him professionally, which is very concerning in this field. Bottom line: He took my money and disappeared when I needed him most. If you are even thinking about hiring this attorney, don’t. This is not someone you want handling your case. I’m attaching screenshots of texts and emails so you can see exactly what I dealt with. Please do not let him con you with “that person was crazy or difficult” when and if you ask him about his poor reviews.

I made an atrocious error with my review! Mr. Vassallo was down for medical reasons and was not available to reply to any of my reaching out attempts. Once recovered, all was well. He immediately made contact, explained his absence and we resumed where we left off. Back to the game plan!

THE BEST LAWYER EVER!!!! During the initial FREE consultation he will explain to you in details what are your options and he will tell you the truth if you have a good case or not. His fees were very reasonable. He was honest, full of knowledge and went above and beyond to help me. Thank you so much Tony!!
