JAMES YUKEVICH
Founding Partner
Yukevich | Cavanaugh

Widely considered to be one of the preeminent litigators in the country, James Yukevich spends much of his time outside of the courtroom working to raise funds for the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank. In the last 20 years, he has served on the Food Bank’s Advisory Board and raised over $2 million to help feed Angelenos suffering from food insecurity.

In part due to Yukevich’s fundraising efforts, in 2022 and 2023, the equivalent of 2.8 million meals were provided to hungry men, women, children, seniors, the disabled, veterans and others in need. This past December, he set a goal of $250,000 and raised $342,500, enlisting the help of the plaintiff’s bar, the defense bar, and his family, colleagues and friends. Yukevich remains resolute in his goal to help end hunger in the community and provide LA County families with the sufficient food for healthy, active lives.
