The Bianchi Law Group Celebrates 13 Years of Distinguished Criminal Defense and Community Service

Former Prosecutors Continue to Deliver Hard-Hitting Defense While Expanding Attorney Wellness Initiatives

PARSIPPANY, NJ – The Bianchi Law Group, LLC, a premier New Jersey criminal defense firm founded by former prosecutors, proudly celebrates 13 years of serving clients across all 21 counties of New Jersey. Founded in 2013 by Robert A. Bianchi, Esq., former Morris County Prosecutor, and David J. Bruno, Esq., former Major Crimes Assistant Prosecutor, the firm has built a reputation for aggressive, knowledgeable criminal defense rooted in insider prosecutorial experience.

“After leaving the Prosecutor’s Office, Bob and I were excited to build BLG from the ground up, and 13 years later, we are still standing, still fighting, and still growing,” said David J. Bruno, founding partner at The Bianchi Law Group. 

What sets The Bianchi Law Group apart is the rare combination of credentials and experience that its founding partners bring to the table. Robert A. Bianchi served as Morris County Prosecutor from 2007 to 2013, appointed by the Governor of New Jersey and unanimously confirmed by the New Jersey Senate. He is the only practicing criminal defense attorney in New Jersey who is both a New Jersey Supreme Court Certified Criminal Trial Attorney and a former Governor-appointed County Prosecutor.

David J. Bruno served alongside Bianchi in the Morris County Prosecutor’s Office from 2007 to 2013, where he was assigned to the Major Crimes Unit prosecuting the most serious criminal offenses, as well as the Professional Standards Unit monitoring police misconduct and the Fraud Unit investigating white collar crimes.

Both partners hold the prestigious designation of Certified Criminal Trial Attorney by the New Jersey Supreme Court, a credential held by less than 1% of the more than 93,000 attorneys licensed in New Jersey.

The transition from prosecution to criminal defense was driven by a deep understanding of the justice system and a commitment to ensuring fair representation for those accused of crimes.

“Our team of former prosecutors brings the kind of experience and dedication that allows us to deliver hard-hitting criminal defense work. We do this while Bob and I expand our reach to serve more people through both representation and our attorney wellness and performance mindset initiatives,” Bruno added.

The firm’s attorneys understand prosecution strategies, courtroom procedures, and the inner workings of the New Jersey criminal justice system from years of experience on the other side. This insider knowledge has proven invaluable in defending clients facing charges ranging from criminal cases and domestic violence to complex white collar crimes and serious felonies.

Beyond case results, the firm has made a commitment to giving back to the legal community by lecturing or numerous Bar Associations, as well as, supporting attorney wellness, an often-overlooked aspect of legal practice. The firm’s attorney wellness initiatives reflect the partners’ dedication to supporting their colleagues and promoting a healthier, more sustainable approach to legal practice.

“Thirteen years ago, we set out to build a different kind of criminal defense firm, one grounded in prosecutorial experience and unwavering commitment to our clients. Today, I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished, not just in the courtroom, but in giving back to the legal community and supporting our colleagues through our attorney wellness initiatives. This is only the beginning.” This is not to mention all of the mentoring and performance mindset practices we give to the entire community of lawyers, and non-lawyers alike,” said Robert A. Bianchi, founding partner at The Bianchi Law Group.

Robert Bianchi and David Bruno have become a prominent legal voice on national television, having appeared as legal analysts on Court TV, CNN, ABC, FOX News, NBC, CBS, and MSNBC. Bianchi served for 6 years as a host and anchor at the Law & Crime Network, providing expert commentary on high profile criminal cases across the country. Both he and David host the Nothing but the Truth Podcast–a show about resilience and mindset practices. 

Throughout their career, Robert and Dave have been recognized with numerous awards, including:
