Yuri D. Cejas

Yuri was born in San Antonio, Texas and resided there until moving to Miami, Florida in 1989.  Following his third year at Florida State University, Yuri was presented with the opportunity to work in the legal field as an intern for Howard & Associates, working with special legal counsel to former Governor Lawton Chiles on the landmark tobacco litigation.  In 2000, Yuri moved to the Rio Grande Valley to look after his grandmother, after the unanticipated death of his grandfather, and made it his permanent home.
          
Yuri’s work experience spans numerous litigation areas.  Over the last four years, he has primarily handled large construction litigation and insurance defense lawsuits.  His practice ranges from civil to criminal work in all areas of litigation.  Yuri is loyal to his clientele and has consistently provided his clients with competent representation in the handling of lawsuits and mitigation of risk.
