What Gornitzky & Co does

Gornitzky & Co. is a privately-held, full-service Israeli law firm founded in 1938 and headquartered at 20 HaHarash Street (Vitania Building) in Tel Aviv. The firm operates as a partnership and employs 251-500 lawyers and staff, offering legal services across 14+ practice areas including Tax, Banking & Finance, Mergers & Acquisitions, Capital Markets & Securities, Antitrust & Competition, International Trade, Cyber-Security & Data Protection, FinTech/Blockchain/Digital Assets, Corporate, Litigation & Dispute Resolution, Real Estate & Construction, Restructuring & Insolvency, Technology, and Labor Law. Its client base spans Israeli and multinational corporations, financial institutions, high-net-worth individuals, and technology and life sciences companies, with deal evidence including the NIS 575 million Next Vision Stabilized Systems block trade, the Osem corporate restructuring, Migdal Group financings, and the yes TV–HBO engagement.

The firm generates revenue through traditional partner-led legal engagements on negotiated fee arrangements (hourly, fixed, or transaction-based) rather than disclosed pricing. Distribution is direct, relying on partner relationships, referrals, and reputation-based business development, supplemented by a content-driven thought leadership program via client updates, newsletters, and rankings-driven earned media. Strategic positioning is anchored by three differentiators: (1) one of only two Israeli law firms that are members of the Loan Market Association, providing access to international lending networks; (2) a talent pool that includes former senior Israel Antitrust Authority officials, former Israel Tax Authority/Tel Aviv District Attorney's Office attorneys, and alumni of Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP NY; and (3) consistent recognition across Legal 500, Chambers Global, and IFLR1000, with Chairman Pinhas Rubin ranked Band 1 in Tax and named to TheMarker's top 100 most influential people in Israel.

The firm pursues measured growth through a structured alumni network (GNET) of 1,000+ professionals across 20+ countries, a 2022 merger with tax-boutique D. Potchebutzky, recent partner additions, and a 2026 sponsorship of Israel Tech Week Miami to capture cross-border Israeli–U.S. deal flow. Operating geographies are primarily Israel with international mandates handled via the International Trade and cross-border finance practices; no overseas offices are disclosed. Financial results are not publicly reported.
