Chicago, IL commercial litigation attorney Gal Pissetzky discusses the philosophy that guides his work as a lawyer. He shares that the guiding philosophy in his legal practice centers on one fundamental principle: protecting the client. This priority shapes every interaction, whether speaking with a prospective client or representing someone in court. By consistently focusing on who the client is and what the desired outcome of each case entails, he ensures that his approach remains aligned with the client’s best interests.

Understanding a client’s objectives is critical, as each individual may have different expectations for how their case should be handled. Listening carefully and identifying the client’s goals are essential steps to achieving success.

Equally important is preparation. Once the client’s goals are clear, thorough preparation is necessary to effectively pursue and achieve those objectives. These two principles—client protection and meticulous preparation—serve as the foundation of his practice every day.
