Kit Yona (he/him) does a little bit of everything at FindLaw, spreading his time between writing, editing, and publishing articles. If it has words, he wants to be involved.
Kit graduated from Fairfield University with a Bachelor of Arts in English and a minor in Psychology. He then earned a Master of Arts in English from Michigan State University. After graduation, he juggled running the family business with righting wrong writing as a freelance writer/editor/proofreader. With the sale of the business, Kit was finally able to focus on his preferred career.
Kit has written everything from college prep essays to answers for The Straight Dope. In addition to helping others with their writing, Kit’s work has appeared in several publications, including one of the lead stories in the Amazon #1 Bestseller Machine of Death. He has edited both nonfiction and fiction in about every genre imaginable.
An admitted word nerd, Kit is also a level three ice hockey referee, a first-degree black belt, and a board game addict. A passionate advocate for women’s rights, he serves as a team leader for MMA Clinic escorts. He lives in New Jersey with his wife, two kids, three dogs, and two cats in a house that is in no way large enough for all of them.

It’s been about 16 months since the Trump administration allegedly defied a federal judge’s order to return three planes carrying men it had labeled as purported members of the Tren de Aragua gang under the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 (AEA). For the Venezuelan men who say they endured four…
The “Terminator” franchise was intended to provide pure escapism through science fiction. A bipartisan pair of U.S. House lawmakers have introduced a bill to make sure that advanced AI models don’t view it as an alternate future they should work toward achieving. Representatives Ted Lieu (D) and Nathaniel Moran (R)…
The march of time is inexorable, with its passage marked by the aging of our bodies. For those among us who refuse to go gentle into that good night, new treatments promising to stave off the unwelcome but inevitable facial wrinkles and creases that hint at our stage in life’s…
On an anniversary that nobody wanted to celebrate, Dr. Tenisha Warner did something she likely wished she didn’t have to. July 20, 2026, marked one year since actor Malcolm-Jamal Warner drowned while on vacation in Costa Rica. It also became the day that Tenisha, his widow and the mother…
We try to focus on issues that affect most, if not all, of the nation. Whether it’s permanent Daylight Saving Time or the latest legal battle over artificial intelligence, there are some stories that have enough ripples to reach everyone. Still, sometimes it feels right to put a…
No one goes into a Waffle House hoping to spend too much time on the toilet. Yet for one diner, a routine bathroom break turned into an event when an allegedly improperly installed toilet seat tipped and sent him to the floor with a lengthy list of claimed injuries. In…
There’s nothing quite like Pensacola Beach in Florida. Tucked up along the westernmost edge of the state’s panhandle, it’s a popular vacation spot that offers white sands, the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico, the blissful warmth of the sun … and F/A-18 Super Hornet fighter jets screaming by…
