The Legal 500 rankings evaluate law firms and attorneys based on rigorous independent research, including client feedback, representative matters, and peer recognition, making this inaugural boutique category a significant distinction among leading litigation firms nationwide.

โ€œWe are honored to be recognized by Legal 500 in its inaugural national boutique rankings,โ€ said Russell Yankwitt, Yankwitt LLP founder and managing partner. โ€œBeing recognized alongside many of the countryโ€™s premier litigation boutiques reflects the strength of our team and the results we achieve for clients in complex, high-stakes matters. Yankwitt further noted that he was โ€œproud to be the only New York-based firm outside Manhattan included in these rankings.โ€

Yankwitt LLPโ€™s inclusion in both Commercial Disputes and White Collar Crime, along with the individual recognitions of its civil and criminal partners, further reinforces the firmโ€™s position as a go-to litigation boutique for bet-the-company matters, internal and government investigations, and white collar criminal defense.

The firmโ€™s team, comprised of former federal law clerks, federal prosecutors, and Big Law attorneys, brings deep experience and sound judgment to sophisticated matters, which is why clients consistently turn to Yankwitt LLP as a trusted advisor in matters involving significant legal and reputational risk.
