History
Our firm traces its roots back to 1924 when it was founded by Nathan Bernard Golsof in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. Gordon Pullan joined the firm in 1951, on his call to the bar, and Pullan Kammerloch Frohlinger is its continuation — a link in the chain of lawyers marking in excess of 80-years of practice.
We, as a firm have faced a trauma or two, not of our own making. And our story goes something like this...
On a June morning in 1954, Gordon Pullan and his colleagues of the time awoke to the news that the building where they rented premises had been swept by fire. They arrived at work to find that description of their circumstance something of an understatement.
What remained of the venerable Time Building on Portage Avenue was a blackened skeleton and smoldering ash. Pullan’s firm and several other law firm tenants found the only really valuable resource left to them was memory and understanding clients. Records were lost forever.
"We survived, and so did many others like us," Pullan said.
Fire struck the firm again in 2003. With business squeezing them into the halls at the Newport Centre, the partners agreed to buy new premises. Their choice, the old Leatherdale Funeral premises on Kennedy Street. The sale done, major renovation was started. It was ended on August 28th by a fire, which swept the building, gutting it and damaging neighboring apartment buildings.
The one positive: it forced a fresh start, which generated the new and current law firm premises at 240 Kennedy.
The co-venturer initiative
We are distinctive in our organization in that we are one of the first in the province of Manitoba to embrace a co-venture structure for our members, which differs from the typical solo, partnerships and associate type structures. This innovation of our own corporate structure is a testament to how we do business.
"Never accepting, always innovating, thinking beyond here and now, to what is and could be."
