Jeff Yashinsky

I am a personal injury trial lawyer. My job is to represent people who were injured because of someone else’s negligence. My goal is to secure the most fair, and the most just, outcome for my clients. I am a seeker of justice and will personally handle each case that comes to our firm. My concern is for my clients and I will make sure that each case receives the detailed attention it deserves. I spent several years working for a national auto insurance company. As a young lawyer, I was trained to fight injury claims and learn the psychology involved in evaluating claims from the insurance company’s standpoint. After gaining valuable trial experience, I eventually moved into an upper level management position. And while I enjoyed the ascension of the corporate ladder, I knew something was missing. I realized I merely had a job. Not a career, not a passion, just a job. It was at that moment I realized, I wasn’t satisfied because I was on the wrong side. I didn’t want to be a defense lawyer anymore. I wanted to be on your side. I wanted to help people. I spent the next several years working for a personal injury firm in Woodstock. I helped build a successful practice that had a niche for cervical injuries and slip and fall cases. I learned how to handle plaintiff cases from beginning to end. Opening files, securing the evidence and documents needed to push the case through the demand stage, and, what buttons to push and levers to pull in order to maximize recoveries without having to take the next step. And then, in the early part of 2017, it was time to forge my own path. On February 1st, 2017, I opened The Yashinsky Law Group. I represent those who need my help – and I LOVE my job.
