Yannalaw: Law the Yannacone way
Major Litigation
The “Law” is often a vast collection of miscellaneous unfamiliar precedents. Worst of all it may be non-existent.
Victor Yannacone has shaped the body of law through major litigation. Over six decades he has brought new technologies, trends, and discoveries to courtrooms and Boardrooms and championed causes in many fields.
From 1959 through 2014 Victor John Yannacone, jr. maintained an active and successful Worker’s Compensation law practice in New York representing claimants who were victims of occupational disease and suffered from exposures to toxic substances and hazardous materials, while persuading courts to provide immediate remedies to protect individuals and the environment.
