When choosing an attorney, one should consider counsel that will be able to work with you for many years to come. The relationship between clients and their legal counsel, except in special cases, requires regular contact especially in reference to the management of trust funds and the organization of personal business affairs. Hence, your legal counsel will remain a constant presence in your life.
Yet, despite being vital to ensuring legal risk management and protection, many lawyers tend to treat clients more like numbers – in that individual cases are broken down and split between different legal departments who focus only on their own fragment of the matter. Here they may have only a vague idea of who the client is and what their colleagues are doing.
Beyond human considerations, this type of methodology can have serious practical consequences. How can you provide tailor made strategies if a client is just a number? The truth is – you can’t.
Our firm has chosen a different path. Here you are not a number in a database but instead an individual who is receiving the same tailor-made counsel requested by the CEO of an important organisation. Because every client in our eyes, no matter of what level, is an important part of what makes business happen in today’s world.
PF Law is noted in the legal field for its personable approach combined with a high level of expertise. In fact, our team prides itself on the business friendships that it is has developed with clients over the past 2 decades – and the way our professionals works with them. This is the opposite of what many big law firms do today – where they tend to treat clients a as a billing number that they must work for in time blocks of 15 minutes as this is what the computer requires of them. PFL recognizes the most important thing for a lawyer is what the client wants from them. It is the relationship with a person and not a machine which counts.
This approach also lets our team members have the space to develop truly ad hoc solutions for their clients, pioneering new ways forward, without having to always fall back on standardized legal routes. It allows the space for innovation in order to procure solutions which exactly fit a client’s needs – much like a made-to-measure garment guarantees a better fit than one purchased in the store.
We are neither entrepreneurs nor brokers: we cannot advise clients on where to invest or on what to do to get their business off the ground. What PF Law can do – and is doing – is to assist businesses and entrepreneurs with the operation of their business activities in line with the legal regulations which govern them.
All of PF Law’s team members have high level experience in numerous fields and sectors – giving them the insight and skills to develop legal strategies for even the most particular situations. In matters where our professionals cannot guarantee the in-depth knowledge required for a particular matter, our PF Law’s team counts on a large network of external collaborators who are experts in ancillary legal topics.
This last point is especially important when speaking of cross-border matters covering different jurisdictions. Here, in particular, PF Law has an established professional relationship with an Italian law firm – in addition to a number of other international legal professionals.
