He was born on the 16th of September in Tel Aviv, served in the brigade "Golani", perfectly graduated University of Jerusalem. In New York he received his doctorate. Later - became a teacher. Subsequently Yaaakov established law firm "Herzog, Fox and Neeman."
Let me tell you a story, so that youwill understand what kind of person he was. In 1996 Neeman became Justice Minister. On the day of his appointment journalist Joab Yitzhak filed a lawsuit against the appointment. Police opened an inquiry. On the same day Yaakov resigned. Moreover, he presented his interests in court himself. He managed to win the case and prove that he was not guilty. Then he was immediately appointed as Minister of Finance.
He was quite tough, exceptional reformer. The true patriot of Israel, one of the best connoisseurs of Torah, ultrahigh man.
Eternal memory. R.I.P.
