About the Firm

Established in 1975, Yablonski Both & Edelman concentrated on civil litigation involving employment. Our firm included its three founding partners: Joseph A. Yablonski, Charles R. Both and Daniel B. Edelman.

Our practice emphasized prosecution and defense of claims involving labor, civil rights, employee benefits, stock options, wrongful termination, sexual harassment, hostile environment, affirmative action, antitrust in the labor context, collective bargaining agreements, wrongful death, personal injury, disability, and breach of contract.

With just three attorneys, we offered small-firm advantages of centralized responsibility for client matters, collegiality and easy accessability. At the same time, we successfully undertook extremely large cases--in some instances independently and in some as co-counsel with other outstanding firms or with civil rights organizations--for individual employees and groups of employees against large and powerful opponents represented by major national firms. The firm established a track record of success in handling civil cases under diverse federal and state statutes at the trial and appellate levels.
