Anthony J. Pietrafesa

I've used Anthony Pietrafesa twice. Once in 2008 and again these past 3 months -- most recently for a judgement for a debt that I supposedly owed a junk debt buyer that dated back over 5 years ago in New York. It just popped up out of no where with no record of it being on my credit report. I live in the D.C. Metro area now and I new that there was no way that I was going to be able to fight this, so I e mailed Anthony and he was able to vacate the judgement quickly and efficiently. I highly recommend this lawyer. He kept me up to date on everything and made me feel comfortable through the whole process. Most importantly, his fee is reasonable. You really can't ask for anything better.

Anthony represented me in a 13 year old fraudulent debt case, where I was blindsided by the well known Mel S. Harris debt collection law firm. Anthony's knowledge, confidence, candor, and positive attitude certainly eased my nerves, as he did everything that he promised- right down to ensuring that money that was taken out of my accounts was returned. He worked immediately on my case, and worked above and beyond (even well past business hours and on weekends) to ensure that I was comfortable and that we were taking the right steps and making progress. I was very impressed with his expertise, resourcefulness, and I was taken at his ability to explain everything in depth so I would understand every option or decision we would make. Though I hope I never need to, I would look to him in the future with any similar concerns.

When I came to Anthony I was stressed and overwhelmed with a judgment placed against me. He walked me through my case and spoke to me honestly about the possible outcomes. Although I was very concerned, Anthony remained calm and made me feel secure that he would work hard for the best possible outcome. He provided guidance and kept me informed on the progress of the case. He made me feel comfortable to contact him at any time if I had questions or concerns. I could not have asked for better legal representation or a better outcome of my case. Thank you Anthony!

Mr Pietrafasa worked for me on a credit card notice of claim case.After the first conversation and sending Mr Pietrafesa my paperwork he had a response to the collection company and faxed to me within 48hrs!.Mr Pietrafesa was understanding,returned all callsand charged a very fair rate. Having worked with lawyers in criminal cases for over 23 years I can say that without a doubt Me Pietrafesa is at the top of his game and knows his law to the highest degree.

Anthony handled a debt collection quickly and professionally. I would highly recommend Anthony to anyone who has ever had debt problems, even if the debt is 5-10 years old, as mine was. Anthony even recovered money from a frozen bank account taken by a debt collection agency. Absolutely the best!!

One excellent lawyer, he handle our problem right away with no questions asked and solved it for us right away. Highly recommend this lawyer.

I would HIGHLY recommend Anthony as an attorney for any credit issues you may be dealing with.. From beginning to end, Anthony was not only cordial and welcoming, but a true professional in solving the credit issue I had. We all know dealing with credit agencies, and collection agencies can be grueling, frustrating and depressing...Anthonys reassurance, guidance, advice and professionalism not only gave me confidence but allowed me to sleep at night, not having to further worry about the issue I was dealing with. By far Anthony has the knowledge and abilities to handle these types of credit issues more than any other person I know, hands down...He knows the law inside and out, period. Anthony is trustworthy, has impeccable resources, and I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone seeking help with credit issues.....He is, and will continue to be my primary go to guy for any future issues that may arise and I STRONGLY recommend him as an attorney.. 5 ***** star rating plus +++++

I hired Anthony in July of 2014 to handle a mortgage case for me. I went to his home right away to give him the $500.00 retainer. He wrote 1 brief letter on July 22 to the mortgage company. Told me on several occasions that he was calling the company repeatedly and getting no response. The company contacted me in August to say they had left several messages for Anthony and had no response. I texted him and called and sent emails and he has disappeared with my $500.00. I was so impressed with his expertise in the beginning and the fact that he emailed or called me right back. Once I gave him the money, it was a different story. I have contacted the Better Business Bureau.

My wife recieved an income execution back in February of this year. We hired Mr Pietrafesa to handle this matter and paid him $750 as a retainer for his services. He stated he reach out to the court in question and get back to us. At first he would respond and state that it was taking longer than expected because of staffing issues with the court and getting the file. Because the original case was so long ago. About 2 months ago now. We recieved another income execution regarding the same alleged debt. We quickly reached out to Mr Pietrafesa for an update. We left a message and email and figured he would be in touch shortly. As he always was before. After not hearing back we called and emailed again. It has now been 2 months of calling and emails and this man has not responded once. He ignores are phone calls and emails. He took our money as a retainer and cant even bother to respond about our case. If he doesnt want to work on the case. Simply say so and return the money. But if you take the money then do your due diligence and work on the case you were retained for. Its simple. Nothing was done regarding this and I find it ridiculous. FOr the past couple days I have been contemplating filing a grievence with the Attorney Grievence Committee just to get a response in some form or fashion. Dont hire this attorney. He takes your money happily and then stops or does no work and never responds. It pains me to say this because just a few short years ago. He worked on a similar case for me and everything went fine.

We hired him because we were literally getting screwed over by a debt company said he could help we met him at a Denny's took some of our paperwork we never got back and now we just want our 500 back that he took and never gave back wrote one letter and that was it can't get ahold of him he won't answer the phone what kind of person does that this somebody that is already in fear of everything that is going on in their life and anxieties like on the very high list of everything and then he does this to us shame on him karma

He took my money and disappear. My card was used by my son to feed his drug addiction. When I told my son I was pressing charges he took his life. The bank refused to list the charges as fraud. I paid Anthony Pietrafesa $750.00 cash to handle the matter. He sent the bank a letter requesting for all the statements and for them to contact him only. I kept calling and emailing him to contact me because I wanted to get this resolved with the bank because the bank was ruining my credit. He never returned my calls or emails. Only once he answered the phone when I called on a blocked phone line. The only contact I got was when I went to his home. After 15 months of him having this case he called me and said they were making an offer. Mr. Pietrafesa allowed the bank to sell the debt to a collection agency. I called the bank and got them to resolve everything with me. They wiped out the debt, notified the credit reporting agency's that everything was paid on time and they helped to restore my credit. They even asked me if I wanted another card.i asked the bank to check their records on the case to see if Mr. Pietrafesa was in contact with them, they said only once and it was by letter at the very beginning. I requested a refund of $500.00 , but again , absolutely no response from him. I figured that $250.00 would be enough of a fee for writing a letter. Do not use this guy, he's useless.
