Yankwitt LLP White Plains Ny review signals at a glance

Yankwitt LLP, more specifically Alicia Tallbe, representing me has been one of the best decisions I have made. The professionalism and clear communication are, without a doubt, above expectations, but it was Alicia and her team's empathy that really stood out to me. I was treated like a person, not just another case file, and it was through their hard work and dedication, I achieved the outcome I had wanted. I am extremely grateful for their representation and would definitely recommend them to anyone in need of strong, smart, compassionate legal support.

In 2019, I was the target of a nuisance lawsuit and was referred to Russ Yankwitt’s firm by a retiring, highly respected corporate litigator. My case was handled by their team and led by Partner Alicia Talbe. Over the course of several months—and often through daily communication—Alicia had my back at every step. I had an extensive number of files and documents to provide throughout the process, all of which she reviewed carefully and used to build a strong defense. She and her team explained the court system clearly and consistently, and not once did I feel overwhelmed or as if I was facing an uphill battle. Their professionalism, confidence, and support made all the difference. I would recommend that anyone searching for a professional, easy-to-communicate-with, no-nonsense law firm—one with a clear understanding of the legal wranglings of the New York court system—reach out for at least an initial interview with the Yankwitt team. I could not have been happier with the outcome of the lawsuit against me, which was ultimately settled in my favor. Thank you Alicia, Russ, and all!

Yankwitt are a class act and provide iron-clad defense when you need a really strong and ethical team. My husband and I recommend Yankwitt routinely to friends and family for matters requiring a thoughtful litigation practice with high customer service. We originally interviewed Yankwitt based on the calibre of the attorneys and Russ Yankwitt's own background, especially prior corporate experience at the'white-shoe' law firms we habitually employ for business dealings. This learned high standard of corporate care alongside the DA office experience of the Yankwitt team are key differentiators in my opinion. Russ assigned Jason Swergold, an experienced litigator, to our unusual case in the Family Courts of Upstate New York. Requiring in-court appearances as well as still-ongoing strategy in negotiations with other attorneys, Jason has proven his value time and time again. He is thoughtful, strategic, sensible and knows how to gain the upper hand through a strongly ethical approach. We are very grateful to have him head our team. Of particular note is the complete fairness we have experienced in his charging, which speaks to the principled management at the helm of this firm. When we all know the sharp side of legal billing can bite you hard....not here. Yankwitt make money because they are amongst the best, not because their billing is aggressive. This is a great relief and contributes to our ongoing trust in Jason's advice. We have trusted Jason to bring additional legal specialists to advise on key areas requiring expertise, and his selection of these other attornets has also been unerringly strong. Very grateful for our engagement with Yankwitt, though we can certainly wish for better circumstances, we trust the team to guide us well.
