Thomas LaGreca was born in Bronx, New York, and was the 5th of ten children. There he lived until he was 11 years old, when his family moved to Closter, New Jersey. He attended Northern Valley Regional High School in Demarest. His perseverance and work ethic were largely shaped by his upbringing in a large family that was fed by his father’s small butcher shop in the Soundview section of the Bronx, where he worked on Saturdays and Summers from about the age of 7 years old. Throughout his adult life, he has had numerous poems and short stories published in a variety of literary journals, enough to have him included in Who’s Who in America for his writing. He is married to one of the other attorneys at Callagy Law and they have three children. He is a Met fan and an avid poker player.
Robert is a Jersey-boy born and raised. While he absolutely love New Jersey and doesn’t plan on moving anytime soon, he also really loves to travel. His favorite places he has traveled are France, Morocco, and Israel. His exposure to different countries and cultures, cultivated a willingness to always try new and exciting things in life. Perhaps, this is a reason why in college he majored in documentary filmmaking and television production. While he would not trade his college experience and major for anything, he eventually knew that his future did not lie in the television production field but rather in Law. Studying for law school, going to law school, becoming a lawyer, and practicing law, has been one of the most rewarding life experiences for Robert. He has always enjoyed being intellectually challenged and pursuing mental growth and development. What makes the practice of law great, is not only can he challenge himself and grow intellectually, but he can do that while advocating for victims, exacting justice, and making a difference in people’s lives.
