Massimo F. D'Angelo, Attorney at Law
mfdangelo@bhs-law.com
B.A., University of Massachusetts at Amherst, 2004; J.D., Thomas M. Cooley Law School, Dean’s List, 2007. Admitted to the New Jersey Bar and U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey, 2008; admitted to the New York Bar, 2008.
Mr. D’Angelo has extensive litigation experience in federal and state courts in both New Jersey and New York. Prior to joining Braff, Harris & Sukoneck, Mr. D’Angelo was a litigation associate at a private firm specializing in the litigation of real estate and complex commercial matters. In Goldman v. Stein, Mr. D’Angelo successfully argued before the Supreme Court of New York, Appellate Division, Second Department, that an employer’s mother-in-law was not his “parent” for purposes of statutory construction and, therefore, should have been considered an “employee” under the New York Human Rights Law. More recently, in a groundbreaking decision before the Superior Court of New Jersey, Essex County, Mr. D’Angelo won an award of interim attorneys’ fees under the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act. This precedent-setting decision, which appeared on the front page of the New Jersey Law Journal, allows consumers, who do not otherwise have the pecuniary means, the ability to fight against mortgage fraudsters in what is now commonly being referred to as “foreclosure-rescue scams”.
Mr. D’Angelo is a member of the New York State Bar Association, New York County Lawyers’ Association, and New Jersey State Bar Association. Mr. D’Angelo is Legal Counsel to the Association of Italian American Educators (“AIAE”).
