Overview

Stewart J. Subjinski is an attorney at Jimerson Birr, P.A. who joined the firm in 2020. Mr. Subjinski handles matters involving employment disputes, general commercial litigation, and transactional advisement for clients in the banking and financial services, transportation and logistics, professional services, and construction industries.

Before law school, Mr. Subjinski earned a bachelor’s degree in Finance from the University of Florida (Go Gators), where he also completed the Heavener Leadership Challenge (Eta Class). Thereafter, Mr. Subjinski earned his Juris Doctor degree from the Washington University School of Law in St. Louis, cum laude. During his first two years of law school, Mr. Subjinski worked in the policy shop at the St. Louis Regional Chamber of Commerce, where he earned a signed copy of H.B. 2046 from Governor Parson—the occupational licensing reform bill that Mr. Subjinski helped draft. Additionally, while in law school Mr. Subjinski was awarded: (i) the Medal for Excellence in Oral Advocacy by the American College of Trial Lawyers, (ii) the William M. Pomerantz Trial Award, and (iii) the American Bar Association Section of State and Local Government Law’s Student Excellence Award. These experiences provided the foundation that Mr. Subjinski would rely on to later deliver business-bettering results for his clients, as described in the Representative Matters section below.

Mr. Subjinski volunteers his time by serving on the Board of Directors for the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) – Jacksonville Chapter, as an active Member in the Turnaround Management Association (TMA), and by holding various volunteer roles in the high school mock trial community.

Born and raised in Jacksonville, Florida, Mr. Subjinski resides in Atlantic Beach. Mr. Subjinski enjoys relaxing on the beach, playing golf, trying new restaurants, and taking long road trips.
