Our Core Practice
With a deep commitment to public safety employees, we represent over 90 firefighter and police pension funds across Illinois. Our extensive experience in pension law allows us to effectively safeguard the financial futures of those who serve our communities, addressing everything from disability hearings to complex compliance issues.
About the Firm
Founded over two decades ago by Richard Puchalski, our firm was built on a singular mission: to be the definitive legal authority for Illinois police and firefighter pension funds. Under Richard's leadership, the firm earned a reputation for unmatched expertise and an unwavering commitment to the public servants who protect our communities.
Today, as Puchalski Goodloe LLC, we carry that legacy forward. With over 90 pension funds relying on our counsel, we remain the state's leading authority in public safety pension law—providing the same dedication, integrity, and depth of knowledge that has defined our practice from the very beginning.
