Testimonials

“Attorney Yanke’s professionalism, determination, expertise and dedication to our case surpassed any and all of my expectations.  Whatever concerns or frustrations I felt during this lengthy process, he eased the concern and frustration by providing answers to my questions with a quick and accurate response.  His broad knowledge and experience with automobile insurance and medical law was exceptional. The best service was his communication in keeping us informed on my case.  Any questions that we had he answered in a language a layperson could understand.  He had determination to fight [for] what he felt was a fair settlement and he didn’t back down.”   M.C.
