Guy V. Molinari was born on November 23, 1928 in New York. He received a BA from Wagner College in 1949 and a Law Degree from New York Law School in 1951.

Mr. Molinari is the only Staten Island official to serve at all three levels of government: as a New York Assemblyman (1975-1980); as a United States Congressman (1981-1989); and as Borough President of Staten Island (1990-2001). One lasting legacy of Mr. Molinari’s three terms as Borough President was the landmark agreement with then New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, and former State of New York Governor George Pataki to close the Fresh Kills Landfill – ending fifty continuous years of dumping on Staten Island. As a United States Congressman, he successfully lobbied for the one-way toll on the Verrazano Narrows Bridge to ease traffic congestion, he saved the former Public Health Service Hospital and orchestrated its conversion to Bayley Seton Hospital, averted environmental disasters by preventing the operation of dangerous liquefied natural gas tanks and coal burning power plants, and gained national attention for his report on airborne toxic waste and its relation to cancer. Guy V. Molinari is revered as a national figure in Republican politics, whose support, dedication, and hard work has culminated in the election of numerous prominent elected officials including former New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani and Michael R. Bloomberg, Staten Island Borough President James P. Molinaro and Congressman Daniel M. Donovan. He currently serves as the New York State Campaign Director for Presidential Candidate Governor Mitt Romney.

Testimonials

For over 25 years, I have been a friend and client of Robert Scamardella, managing partner of the Law Firm of Russo, Scamardella & D’Amato. His Firm has represented me on numerous purchases and sales as well as corporate and commercial ventures. In addition, the Firm has represented me on various types of litigation matters. During my years as a client, I have worked with all the Firm’s associate attorneys, each of whom specialize in their individual areas of practice which allows them to focus on the task at hand. In each instance, my attorneys were available to meet and/or speak with me on a moment’s notice. They pay close attention to details and get the most favorable results possible. I can’t imagine ever going to another law firm or recommending any firm other than Russo, Scamardella & D’Amato. Donald J. Banks – Bedford Construction Corp.

For many years, my family has used the services of Russo, Scamardella & D’Amato for all our business and personal matters. In fact, both of my parents’ estates were settled through the firm. So, recently, when my brother passed away suddenly, my family naturally retained the firm to represent us once again. As in the past, we were given sound legal advice and kept informed as developments occurred. It’s comforting to know that you can trust your attorneys to diligently work on your behalf especially in times of tragedy. Michael DiDomenico

I have been a client of Russo, Scamardella & D’Amato for over twenty years. The Firm has represented me in a variety of matters including Estate Planning, Adoption, Matrimonial and Real Estate Purchases and Sales. Moreover, Robert Scamardella, as managing partner was instrumental in handling the probate of my father’s estate as well as litigation relative to asbestos exposure. Most recently, in an attempt to sell real estate, in which I was a part owner, it became necessary to track down approximately 25 family members and heirs to get their consent to sell the property. It was an ongoing project that required legal skill and expertise. I’m happy to say that, through the efforts of my attorneys, especially James Thomson, the transaction did close. Without hesitation, I would recommend Russo, Scamardella & D’Amato to anyone seeking excellent legal representation. Pete Falcone

Whether it’s personal or business related, our family always seek the advice and services of Russo, Scamardella & D’Amato. For over twenty-five years, we have retained the firm to handle corporate formations, stockholder and operating agreements, as well as leases and mechanic’s liens. Each of our family members have individually used the firm for our estate planning and estate administration. Whether it’s the managing partner, Robert Scamardella, or the firm’s associates, James Thomson or Leslie Kasegrande, who handle our matters, we are always given expert advice and counsel. We would, without hesitation, recommend the Law Firm of Russo, Scamardella & D’Amato as attorneys who get the job done. Wiesner Bros./The Wiesner Family

In times of trouble, it’s comforting to know that you have attorneys who are working tirelessly and diligently on your behalf. When my mother passed away, aside from mourning her loss, I was faced with so much unexpected turmoil and apprehension. However, after meeting with Robert Scamardella and Leslie Kasegrande, this burden was greatly relieved. My calls were promptly returned and all of my concerns and questions were dealt with immediately. I would wholeheartedly recommend the Law Firm of Russo, Scamardella & D’Amato to anyone seeking expert legal advice. Grace Anderson
