About Irina
Irina Yadgarova earned her J.D. from Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law after attending beginning in 2005 and graduating in 2008. She built the foundation of her legal training in New York, where she later returned to practice. The timeline from law school to practice has a clear throughline: academic preparation followed by work inside the legal departments of financial institutions.
Her first notable role after law school was as in-house counsel at UBS Wealth Management in 2008. That position placed her inside a large, regulated business and offered early exposure to wealth-management issues, client-facing documentation and the contractual mechanics that govern financial services. The experience in a corporate legal department informed how she approaches transactional work and client counseling later in her career.
Yadgarova is licensed to practice in New York and New Jersey. She completed New York City procurement training on New York City Contracting, a credential that speaks to public contracting procedures and municipal procurement rules. She has been a member of the New York State Bar Association since 2009 and remains an active member. Those affiliations reflect a steady professional involvement in the regional legal community rather than a pattern of short-term engagements.
She later established a private practice under the Law Offices of Irina Yadgarova, PLLC. The firm handles matters that draw on her in-house background and procurement training, including transactional agreements, contract review and advisory work for individuals and small businesses. Clients seeking someone familiar with both private wealth environments and public procurement situations have found the combination useful.
Colleagues describe her approach as practical and methodical. She tends to break complex agreements into manageable parts for clients, explaining legal implications without excessive jargon. That methodical style is consistent across transactional matters and contract negotiations. She has kept a steady practice rhythm while maintaining professional ties in the New York legal community.
Yadgarova continues to work from her private practice in New York, handling transactional and contract matters for clients in both New York and New Jersey. Her current practice focuses on wealth-management-related matters, contract work and transactional counseling in New York and New Jersey.
