For more than 75 years, Yaeger & Jungbauer Barristers, PLC has been the law firm injured people, railroaders and their families turn to for help at some of the most difficult times of their lives.
YJB dates back to 1929 when Carl L. Yaeger, Sr., the firm's founder, was named a partner in the firm of Davis, Michel & Yaeger. In the 1950s, two of Carl's sons, Carl, Jr., and Bill joined the firm and soon after the name became Yaeger & Yaeger. Bill Jungbauer and Ron Barczak began working at Yaeger & Yaeger in the late 1970s. By 1985, Bill and Ron were active partners in the growing law firm and are now senior partners.
