Anthony Tarricone is the first American to be elected to the Pan European Organisation of Personal Injury Lawyers (PEOPIL) Board of Directors.

Anthony has over 30 years of experience representing families who have suffered the emotional and financial devastation that results from the unexpected death or injury of a spouse, child, parent or loved one. His proven record of successful litigation in wrongful death and catastrophic injury cases involving aircraft accidents and disasters, defective products, medical negligence and other complex cases further attests to his dedication to providing hope and closure for victims and their families. 

The Boston Globe featured a story about a Kreindler client who was critically injured by falling concrete.

Anthony represented the families of the three students who lost their lives in the crash of Asiana Flight 214 and is currently representing a young pianist who was seriously injured when large sections a one-story building facade collapsed, burying her under chunks of concrete.

Anthony has played a significant role in toxic and environmental litigation, too. For the litigation against BP following the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010, Anthony was appointed by the federal judge overseeing the case to the Plaintiffs’ Executive Committee.

Anthony attended Suffolk University Law School, where he served as Note Editor of the Law Review and graduated first in his class. After graduation, he served as Law Clerk to the Justices of the Superior Court before entering private practice. Before joining Kreindler, Anthony was a founding law firm partner of Sarrouf, Tarricone & Flemming where he headed the firm’s aviation practice, handling a broad spectrum of cases from air carrier disasters to general aviation accidents in claims against air carriers, manufacturers of aircraft and components, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), aircraft repair stations and operators of charter and rental aircraft.

We only consider ourselves successful after we've obtained the highest recovery the law will allow for our clients.
