Novelist Vincent Scarsella draws on his over 18 years of real life experience as head of the Eighth Judicial District Grievance Committee in Buffalo, New York to craft a gripping, suspenseful three-book series about lawyers gone bad.
Book 1 – Lawyers Gone Bad: Lawyers Gone Bad is the story of beleaguered attorney disciplinary counsel, Dean Alessi, and his trusty investigator, Stu Foley, in their fight against lawyers gone bad – that is, lawyers who commit ethical and criminal wrongs. In this case they’re investigating the local District Attorney, who may have committed the ultimate ethical wrong - murder.
Book 2 – Personal Injuries: Legal Discipline Office Director, Dean Alessi, and his Chief Investigator, Stu Foley, are back investigating lawyers gone bad - this time the state’s top personal injury firm, Craig & Craig, run by ruthless brothers, Larry and David Craig, for sending clients to bad doctors for bogus surgeries to increase the value of their cases. The day after a young associate lawyer of the firm comes in crying and tells Dean and Stu that his client has died on the operating table during one of these surgeries, he commits suicide. But was it really suicide or was the young lawyer murdered by the Craig brother’s henchman, Nick “Sonny” Folino, a former mob associate, to keep him quiet?
Book 3 – Winning is Everything: Legal Discipline Office Director Dean Alessi and his Chief Investigator Stu Foley return in this third installment of the Lawyers Gone Bad series to open another “unofficial” investigation into lawyers gone bad. This time, their investigation may scuttle the hopes of Buffalo Stallions fans for a trip to the Super Bowl as they dig into whether the local District Attorney has been bribed by the Stallions’ owner to dismiss a rape investigation into the team’s young star QB, Jake Riley.
But the stories are more than crime novels. They concern friendship, loss, unrequited love, and ultimately - justice.

★★★★★ Enjoyable Series - I'm hooked on this series and hope to read many more. I don't know why no one thought up this angle before. Stories about lawyers who investigate and prosecute other lawyers. Terrific book. - Maverick
★★★★★ Wonderfully Different. - I read so many legal themed books but none like this one. Great insight into the investigations of crooked and politically charged attorneys. Looking for his next book. - Lurline S.
★★★★★ Fantastic Plot! - I read a lot . I read a lot of mystery and suspense novels too. This was as good or better than anything I've read in a long time. A great plot, smooth dialogue and a nice style. I highly recommend it. I look forward to reading Mr. Scarsella's newest novel. - Harry J Gawronski
Lawyers Gone Bad follows on the success of Vincent Scarsella’s debut crime novel, “The Anonymous Man”, about which The Buffalo News said: "The Anonymous Man gets decent marks for creativity and intricacy...it's a fast read that runs through familiar local settings to a satisfying conclusion. Scarsella has the makings of a good storyteller...
