Our Founder
Adv. Nahum Amit graduated law school in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 1947. He practiced law in Argentina until 1954, when he made “Aliyah” to Israel. In 1956 he was admitted to the Israeli bar association and founded the law firm, later to become known as Amit, Pollak, Matalon & Co.
In 1969, Adv. Amit was appointed Honorary Consul of Paraguay in Israel, and in 1993 he was certified to practice law in Madrid, Spain.
Adv. Amit practiced law for over 50 years- until his final days. He was an enthusiastic Zionist and one of the founding fathers of Israel’s manufacturing industry. Nahum was our mentor, our friend and a source of inspiration to all of us.
Nahum was a true professional, but first and foremost he was an honest person with great admiration for the human spirit and mankind. He had a wonderful sense of humor and a passion for life. We have been blessed to be living his vision and to have enjoyed his wise advice and kind words. He was dignified in every way and remains an example of excellence to us all.
His memory remains in our hearts, as we carry on his legacy with great pride.

We strive to make a significant contribution to the community and to Israeli society at large, with an emphasis on disadvantaged groups, in a manner that is discreet, modest, and sincere.
