Pretzel & Stouffer, Chartered
Proven results. Personal service. Persistent advocacy. The practice of law may have changed since 1946, but Pretzel & Stouffer’s reputation among clients, judges and the legal community at large remains stellar and untarnished. Our History Paul Pretzel made history when he began representing doctors and hospitals in Chicago’s first medical malpractice cases, three decades after the firm’s establishment. Since then, professionals and institutions have relied onPretzel & Stouffer’s legal advice. We take great pride in the fact that we are, first and foremost, trial lawyers. Our opponents are cognizant of our trial and appellate abilities, and our winning track record gives us critical leverage inside and outside the courtroom. Our Philosophy While armed with the skill and experience to take every matter to trial, we are keenly aware that a courtroom resolution is not always in our client’s best interest. Our thoroughness throughout the discovery process frequently forces plaintiffs to lower their demand in face of trial. With this approach, we have been highly successful not only in securing favorable jury verdicts and during motion practice, but also in negotiating settlements for our clients from a position of formidable strength. The firm's posts are to inform of developments that may affect business and are not to be considered legal advice. They do not create a lawyer-client relationship. Information on previous case results does not guarantee a similar future result.
