Yankwitt LLP attorneys are seasoned litigators, aggressive trial lawyers and creative problem solvers. Law firms throughout Westchester County and the New York metropolitan area often call on us to serve as a last minute trial team on their high-stakes cases. Our earned reputation as effective litigators and trial attorneys has made Yankwitt LLP the go-to law firm when clients are faced with a complex or bet-the-company trial.

Deep Federal and State Court Experience Fuels Our Success

Our deep federal and state court experience drives our success as trial attorneys: all of our senior Westchester-based attorneys are former federal prosecutors and/or law clerks – a combination rarely found outside New York City. They regularly appear before state and federal courts across the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York and the District of New Jersey and in the New York and New Jersey state courts, including New York’s Commercial Division.

Additionally, all of our senior attorneys have worked for leading New York City or national law firms, where they received unparalleled training as persuasive writers and compelling storytellers – critical skills for success before judge and jury.

Fast Trial Preparation with Clear Communication and Cost Control

Taking over a case for trial at the 11th hour requires a skillset beyond just good lawyering; it demands intense preparation at lightning speed to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the complex legal issues and factual nuances of the high-stakes dispute.

The powerhouse trial attorneys at Yankwitt LLP have decades of experience trying cases. They are especially proficient at hitting the ground running on the eve of trial and working with lead litigation counsel to provide seamless representation to our shared client. We believe in smart, lean staffing to maximize our clients’ outcome, while minimizing their legal spend. We strive to foster close attorney-client relationships founded in honesty, transparency, and open and frequent communication – to minimize the angst that often comes with trials, no matter how they arise.

Yankwitt LLP’s lawyers recognize that while no two clients or cases are the same, one thing remains constant: we tirelessly and aggressively advocate on our clients’ behalf. When brought in close to a trial date, we move quickly to understand the case, how to best align with our client’s goals, and resolve the matter in the most cost-effective way possible.
