About Jacob

One of the reasons that I became a lawyer was to help people resolve problems that they could not attend to on their own. Growing up I met many people that needed help to correct an injustice, or to legally fight for their rights, however they had no one to turn to. I always wanted to help these different people.

 

When I became a lawyer I never forgot the people that needed help.  When I meet with a client I remember that my job is to explain the legal process, and to the best of my ability help them with their legal needs.  I commit the complete resources of my firm to each client and let them know that we will do our very best for them.

I needed an attorney to represent me in a law suit. I choose the law firm of Jacob Oresky and Associates. They went above and beyond of what I expected and did a great job of representing me. I was kept informed about the progress and would highly recommend this law firm for exceptional service. Lynn, Nassau County

BEST ATTORNEY

Posted by

I fell from a sidewalk bridge and had bad injuries and surgeries. I was frightened about my family’s future. Jacob Oresky and his team helped me get my medical bills and lost wages paid. Jacob met personally with me and explained everything. Mr. Oresky prepared me all the way. He even would talk to me at night and on the weekend. Jacob got me a great settlement and I am thrilled with him and his team.

GREAT LAWYER

A van hit me and broke my leg in several places, I was afraid that I was going to lose my leg. I was overwhelmed with medical bills. I called Jacob Oresky & Associates and they visited me in the hospital. Jacob walked me through the whole process and made everything easy. Throughout the case his team kept me updated. Jacob always made me feel like my case was the most important. The settlement was excellent and I think he is a great attorney and my friend.

I fell from a beam to the floor below. My boss refused to call an ambulance and took me home and told me to rest. I was in a lot of pain and I decided to go to the hospital on my own. I found out it was serious so I called attorney Jacob Oresky. Mr. Oresky immediately assigned an investigator to my case and his team went to work helping to get my lost wages and medical expenses paid. Attorney Oresky sat with me personally and prepared me, he even spoke to me at night and on the weekend. My case went to trial and I was very happy with the jury's verdict. The Oresky team did an incredible job for me

My case went all the way to jury verdict and I was very happy with the result. They are awesome

WONDERFUL ATTORNEY

Posted by

I had a bad construction accident and was really hurt. I was scared and disoriented and didn’t know what to do. I called lawyer Jacob Oresky and he helped me with my problems. He helped me file for Workers’ Compensation to pay for my medical bills and lost wages. Lawyer Oresky started a lawsuit for my injuries, his firm went to trial and we had a great outcome. The staff was always friendly and always willing to help. Thanks to Jacob Oresky, my family is secure.

I endorse this lawyer. I have had the opportunity to work for Jacob Oresky for more than five years. In that time, I have been overwhelmed by his knowledge, experience, and dedication to the needs of his clients. The results of all of Jacob Oresky's hard work can be seen in great wins and settlements in almost every single case. One of New York City's best firms!
