About Anthony J.
Anthony J. Gallo built his career from solid academic roots. He earned a Bachelor of Science from the State University of New York at New Paltz. He went on to Hofstra University, where he completed a J.D. in 1996. Those years set the stage for a practice that has spent a good deal of time in federal courthouses.
He moved into private practice and, in 2018, took on two significant roles. He joined Tully Rinckey PLLC as a partner that year. He also became a managing member of AJ Gallo Associates PC. The dual roles reflect a practitioner comfortable in both larger firm structures and smaller, self-directed practice.
Gallo holds admissions that shape where he works. He is admitted to the United States District Courts for the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York. He is also a member of the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. Those credentials point to frequent appearances before federal judges and the appellate bench.
Colleagues describe him as someone who prefers clear, direct advocacy. He prepares briefs and handles court appearances with attention to record and procedure. He has handled matters that required coordinated filings across district and appellate levels. That practical experience in federal procedure informs how he manages cases day to day.
Throughout his career he has balanced litigation and case management. At Tully Rinckey he participates in team-based litigation work. At AJ Gallo Associates PC he oversees case strategy and administrative duties that come with running a small firm. The combination gives him experience in both courtroom work and law firm operations.
Outside the courtroom he maintains ties to the legal community through court admissions and informal networks. He appears in filings and dockets in the Southern and Eastern Districts and before the Second Circuit when matters require appellate briefing. That ongoing federal practice keeps him closely engaged with developments in those courts.
As of 2026 he practices through Tully Rinckey PLLC and AJ Gallo Associates PC. He concentrates his work in federal litigation and appellate matters, regularly appearing in the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York and before the Second Circuit Court of Appeals.
