About the Founder

The Founder and CEO of USCP, Mr. Frank Del Vecchio, began his career in law enforcement over twenty years ago. He rose through the ranks and in 2003 became the Director of Public Safety for the County of Bergen, State of New Jersey. As the Director of Public Safety, Mr. Del Vecchio understood the need for businesses to be held accountable and understood the hardships created when businesses victimized consumers. He worked and developed a plan to reshape consumer protection in Bergen County and completely streamline the Division of Consumer Protection, while expanding the authority of the division. Under his leadership the division grew and consumers began to see concrete results with the largest amount of money being refunded to consumers in the history of the county. In addition, the Division of Consumer Protection became the Bergen County Division of Consumer Affairs which became an enforcement branch of government allowed to enforce the provisions of the Consumer Fraud Act sending investigators into the field to uncover bad business practices and protect consumers.

Mr. Del Vecchio understands first hand the importance of having a strong consumer advocate who not only protects consumers but highlights the reputable businesses that have a commitment to doing the right thing. In 2005, Mr. Del Vecchio resigned from his position as Director of Public Safety to pursue other career opportunities. Mr. Del Vecchio decided that there is a need to work with consumers and businesses that have solid reputations, smart policies and practice good business, hence the launch of US Consumer Protection, LLC. USPC is a company that consumers can count on and turn to when they are victimized by bad business. Reputable businesses can turn to USCP for advice and assistance as well. There is a strong need to protect the rights of consumers and he hopes that you will join the USCP mission.
