Yankwitt LLP is an elite trial and litigation firm with offices in White Plains, NY, and Atlantic City, NJ. Our lawyers are prominent members of the Westchester and New York City bars, who utilize their vast experience to produce exceptional outcomes for our clients.

At Yankwitt LLP, we listen to our clients and design unique litigation strategies for each matter that will best serve the client's needs. We are aggressive trial lawyers who stand willing to try cases in both federal and state courts. We also advise clients when it is wiser and more economical to resolve claims before trial, and then tirelessly pursue the most favorable settlement.

Our firm is led by Russell Yankwitt, a former federal law clerk, big firm litigator, and an Assistant United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York. Russell is the chair of the Federal Bar Council's Westchester Committee, and has been named to the New York Metro Super Lawyers list every year since 2011; has been named Best Lawyer in Commercial Litigation, and as earned an AV Preeminent Rating by Martindale-Hubbell. All of our New York lawyers are former federal law clerks and/or prosecutors.

Yankwitt LLP represents high-net-worth individuals and businesses as both defendants and plaintiffs in commercial disputes of all kinds. In addition, as counselors and litigators, we guide our clients through a broad range of corporate issues to avoid litigation, but when necessary, stand ready to assist with contract disputes, shareholder disputes, employment litigation, accounting and legal malpractice, government investigations, as well as other matters. We also serve as general counsel for White Plains, New York City, and national businesses. At Yankwitt LLP, all of our clients receive seasoned New York City trained litigators without paying NYC prices.
