Our Team

The team behind Styskal Law.

One attorney, one firm, and a shared belief that good lawyering starts with good listening. Meet the people you'll actually work with.

Family People, Protecting Families

We're a family — practicing the way a family would want to be treated.

Styskal Law isn't a logo on an office tower. It's one attorney, one family, and a commitment to treating every client the way we'd want our own family treated. That's the standard — and it shapes every call, every plan, every signing.

Jack-Styskal
Founding Attorney

Jack Styskal

Jack, formally known as John, is calm in a crisis, clear in his explanations, and never in a hurry to sell something you don't need. Clients get an attorney who actually listens — and many of those relationships span generations.

He's built a practice on honesty, not billable hours. And he'll tell you when you don't need a lawyer. That's the Styskal Law standard — and it's still how he answers the phone today.

Avi Styskal

Avi is the operational heart of Styskal Law — the reason calls get returned the same day, paperwork moves on schedule, and every client feels personally taken care of. She keeps the firm running the way a family-first practice should: responsive, organized, and never hiding behind a gatekeeper.

Why We're Different

The opposite of what you expect from a lawyer.

We measure success by relationships, not billable hours. Here's what that actually looks like.

We'll talk you out of overpaying

If a simpler form, a different attorney, or no lawyer at all is the right answer — that's what we'll tell you. Always.

Short calls aren't billed

Quick question? Pick up the phone. We don't run the clock on a five-minute call to put your mind at ease.

Jack answers the phone himself

No gatekeepers, no phone trees, no waiting three days for a callback. You get an attorney — directly.

We send you elsewhere when we should

If your matter is better handled by another firm or a cheaper option, we'll point you there. Honest counsel beats a billable hour.

"Half the time the best advice I can give is: you don't need me. You need a $40 form, or a phone call to your bank. That's not bad for business — that's how we built it."

— Jack Styskal

Meet Jack — In His Own Words

"How I talk people out of overpaying."

A short conversation with Jack on why he built Styskal Law the way he did — and why the most valuable call you'll have with a lawyer might be the one that ends with "you don't need one."
