Family patriarch, Attorney Philip Kassel said he never pressured his children to pursue careers in the legal profession, but he was certainly happy with his sons’ and his grandson’s career path choices. “I feel good about it because I’d like to think the law will benefit from Gavin because he’s so interested in people and wants to help people,” Philip Kassel said. “He’s not interested in getting some corporate job and earning a bunch of money. He wants to help people, and I feel good about the fact these kids want to be productive and contribute to society. They’re in a profession that can make a difference.”
