About William
Current Positions:
William E. Vinsko, Jr., Esquire is the Managing Principal and Founder of Vinsko & Associates. With extensive real estate, government, estate planning and business/corporate experience, Attorney Vinsko has handled numerous complex legal matters in these practice areas with significant decisions in the Commonwealth Court and Supreme Court of Pennsylvania. He has served as an advisor and special counsel to various municipalities throughout the Commonwealth, and, 2002, was appointed as Assistant City Attorney for the City of Wilkes-Barre, becoming the youngest attorney to hold the position in the City's history. Attorney Vinsko's experience in his areas of practice extends beyond his knowledge of the law, as he routinely handles litigation in these areas which are traditionally considered transactional areas of law.
As an extension of his government and municipal law practice, Attorney Vinsko has handled numerous high-profile election law matters in the areas of campaign finance reporting and ballot removal defenses. Specifically his case, In Re Carroll, which he tried before the Commonwealth Court, has become one of the leading cases in election law finance reporting, being ultimately decided by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. (See In Re Carroll, 586 Pa 624, 896 A.2d 566, May 2, 2006). Additionally, Attorney Vinsko has become quite experienced in municipal matters regarding wind farms and windmill placement in Pennsylvania. One of the leading cases regarding this arose during his current tenure as Solicitor to Bear Creek Township, Pennsylvania, which was appealed to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. His unique level of experience in this new area of law led to his being appointed as special counsel to municipalities throughout the Commonwealth which are dealing with windmill issues and ordinances.
