Jacob Oresky & Associates, PLLC


When people are injured in tragic construction accidents, car accidents, or other types of serious accidents, their future and their family’s future are often put at stake. At moments like these, they need someone to step in and stop or minimize the downward spiral of damages caused by the accident—a dedicated advocate who can go to work for them immediately.

For almost 25 years, Jacob Oresky & Associates, PLLC has been this ally. “We step in and help our clients turn their situations around,” states Jacob Oresky, Esq. “As an attorney my greatest satisfaction is when a client tells me that I have changed his or her life; that’s when I know that I have truly helped someone.”

Over its history, Jacob Oresky & Associates, PLLC has assisted more than a thousand seriously injured people and their families, obtaining numerous multimillion-dollar victories in complex cases. “Giving that extra help when the client needs it is truly a guiding principle at my firm,” Oresky states. “We go above and beyond for our clients because the grieving process is hard enough without the confusion of the legal system.”

From the moment the Oresky firm is retained as counsel, its goal is to not only ensure that clients receive maximum compensation for their injuries, but it is also to provide hassle-free service and personal attention in every matter. In a recent case involving a man who was killed on his way to work when he was struck by a school bus, the firm, after winning the case on summary judgment and obtaining an award of $5 million in April 2014, brought in a company that specializes in structuring settlements to protect the man’s children.

In May 2014, Oresky secured an award of $4.4 million for a construction worker who was injured when he fell approximately 30 feet at a building under construction. Results like these are markers of the firm’s continued growth in a competitive economic environment, something Oresky credits to the firm’s reputation for providing clients with hard work, dedicated service, and honest counsel. As one client notes of the firm’s representation: “It was more like a bond with my family.”
