Roseland, NJ -Anthony Iacullo, raised in Nutley where he ran his law practice for 20 years, has joined Mandelbaum Barrett PC's Litigation and White Collar & Criminal Defense Practice Groups

A seasoned litigator, Iacullo brings nearly three decades of criminal defense experience to the firm, during which time he focused his practice on representing clients facing serious criminal charges, including wire and healthcare fraud, drug offenses, sexual assaults, robbery, kidnapping, money laundering, racketeering, and murder, in both state and federal courts. He has represented thousands of clients, including high-profile individuals, in numerous jurisdictions, including New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Connecticut, Florida, and California. Among the high-profile matters Iacullo has handled are “Bridgegate,” when he represented Governor Christie’s press secretary in hearings before the House and Senate committee regarding the lane closures of the George Washington Bridge; the Asbury Park Mayor in a federal bribery trial concerning the redevelopment of Asbury Park waterfront, and his representation of one of 24 West New York police officers in the largest police corruption case in New Jersey’s history.

“Tony and I met and became friends thirty years ago as young assistant prosecutors in Bergen County. Tony’s skill in the courtroom has only flourished since then, and that is why today, he is regarded as one of the state’s best trial attorneys. Partnering with Tony, and the experience he brings to the firm, will provide meaningful value to our White Collar and Criminal Defense Practice and all of our clients. We welcome Tony with open arms,“ said Robert C. Scrivo, co-chair of the White Collar and Criminal Defense practice at Mandelbaum Barrett PC.

A former assistant prosecutor at the Bergen County Prosecutor's Office in Hackensack, New Jersey, Iacullo has prosecuted a wide range of criminal cases, including high-profile matters involving drug offenses and homicides.

“Robert and I are incredibly fortunate for the opportunity to partner with Tony. His track record as a trial attorney is second to none, and his eagerness to meet the next courtroom challenge unparalleled. We jumped at the chance to have Tony join our team,” added Damian P. Conforti, co-chair of the White Collar and Criminal Defense practice.

Iacullo also has extensive appellate experience having appeared before the NJ Appellate Division, the Supreme Court of New Jersey, and the Third Circuit Court of Appeals. Certified by the Supreme Court of New Jersey as a Criminal Trial Attorney, he is admitted to practice in New Jersey, the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, and the U.S. Supreme Court of New Jersey.

He earned a J.D. from Seton Hall University School of Law and a B.A., magna cum laude, in Political Science from Seton Hall University.
