Alfred Sanzari Enterprises has added longtime commercial real estate attorney Robert Migliorelli as vice president and general counsel, the Hackensack-based firm announced.

Migliorelli, a former partner with Mandelbaum Barrett PC, will serve as a key piece of Sanzari’s senior leadership team and oversee all legal matters. He comes to the role with nearly three decades of real estate law experience, which also includes 21 years at DeCotiis, FitzPatrick, Cole & Giblin LLP.

“I am thrilled to join Alfred Sanzari Enterprises and begin this next chapter in my career,” Migliorelli said. “Over the past 80 years, Alfred Sanzari Enterprises has built a superior reputation for excellence in New Jersey’s real estate industry and I’m excited to help contribute to its legacy and continued success.”

According to a news release, Migliorelli was a partner in Mandelbaum Barrett’ commercial real estate and financing practice. In that role, he represented several lending institutions and borrowers in the financing of asset-based construction, acquisition and refinance transactions, while also working on behalf of clients in the acquisition, disposition and leasing of commercial real estate.

Prior to Mandelbaum Barrett and Paramus-based DeCotiis, he held roles at Mongelli & Ritchie PC and Melli Guerin & Melli PC.

“Robert’s impressive track record and deep experience made him a perfect fit for our team,” said Ryan Sanzari, the firm’s president. “I know he will be a pivotal member of our senior leadership team and help us achieve our short and long-term goals.”

Migliorelli holds a bachelor’s in political science from Fordham University and a juris doctor from the Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University.
