He received his law degree from Villanova University School of Law in 1989, where he was chosen by his classmates to deliver the commencement address. Attorney Anthony is admitted to practice law in Connecticut and is also admitted to practice before the United States Federal District Court and the United States Supreme Court. Attorney Anthony was appointed Assistant Corporation Council for the City of Shelton and held that post until 1995. In that capacity, he represented the city in various municipal sections including zoning enforcement, tax matters and litigation before several commissions, agencies and courts. Attorney Anthony has successfully represented family law litigants in family matters such as divorce, custody, relocation, post judgment enforcement. While most cases are geographically centered around the Milford and Bridgeport Courts, he also represents clients in the New Haven, Waterbury, and Family Regional Court in Middletown and Danbury Courts. In 1994, Fred Anthony was elected Judge of Probate for the City of Shelton and has been re-elected every four years since.

Judge Anthony served as President-Judge of the Connecticut Probate Assembly between 2008-2010. During his term, a massive overhaul of the Connecticut Probate Courts was accomplished. Both court facilities and practices were consolidated and streamlined to provide more comprehensive and uniform services to all residents of the State of Connecticut. Judge Anthony was recognized by the Connecticut Law Tribune as one of the "Dozen Who Make a Difference" by improving the legal system of the community. In 2013, Judge Anthony was named President-Elect of the National College of Probate Judges. The College is the only national organization exclusively dedicated to improving probate law and probate courts.

Working with Attorney Anthony gave me the peace of mind I needed. I twice now have hired him to navigate the dirty waters of a divorce case. In both of the cases there was a win on our side. I have consulted with other Attorneys in the area with subpar results. I can’t truly stress it enough that if you want quality representation by one of the most experienced Attorneys in Fairfield county, look no further!
Attorney Anthony is by far the most amazing, caring and heartfelt attorney I have met. I consulted with a handful of attorneys, and I did not get the feeling that I got when I met with Fred. He made me feel supported through every single step of my divorce. He followed up within the hour on every phone call, text, or email. He even responded to an email the night before Christmas Eve. Anytime I was being unreasonable, he would tell me. One word to describe him, besides being amazing, is honest. When Fred knew that something I wanted wasn't worth the fight or unrealistic, he let me know, but always let the decision be mine to make at the end. His team (paralegal) is also amazing. She followed up after each and every court date, called me to check on me, and made me feel supported as well. It has been almost one year after my divorce, and Fred still will call to check up on me and see if anything has came up with my ex spouse. He truly is passionate about his job, and puts his clients first. Without Fred and his team, I would have never made it through my divorce. Fred helped me see the bright side of things when I thought things would not get better. To this day, I appreciate everything Fred has done for me, not to mention he got me everything I wanted/asked for in my divorce.
Mr. Anthony was compassionate and confident. He truly listened to what I needed and reassured me when I needed reassuring. He never waivered. He never suggested that I "settle" for less than I needed to move forward.
