About Steve M.

Steve M. Przesmicki built his legal foundation at the University of Wisconsin. He earned a B.A. in political science from UW–Madison in 1989 and returned to the school for his J.D., which he received in 1995. Those years in Madison shaped his early approach to law. They also provided the academic grounding he carried into private practice.

After law school, Przesmicki entered private practice and later served as a partner at Cooley Godward Kronish LLP. At the firm he handled matters that spanned client counseling and firm-level strategy. He worked with teams inside and outside the firm to align legal work with business goals. Colleagues remember him as methodical in preparing matters and steady when issues required detailed attention.

Przesmicki is admitted to practice in both Wisconsin and California. That dual admission has allowed him to take on matters that cross state lines and to advise clients who operate in more than one jurisdiction. It also demanded familiarity with differing procedural rules and regulatory environments, and he developed practical habits to manage those differences.

Over the course of his career he has balanced the demands of partnership at a national firm with the daily needs of client work. His day-to-day practice involved coordinating with associates and outside counsel, drafting and reviewing substantive documents, and counseling clients on legal options. He has handled complex scheduling and logistic challenges that often arise when matters touch multiple states.

Outside the office his legal training informs his approach to problem solving. He draws on an education rooted in political science and law to read statutory language and evaluate policy implications. He aims to present clients with clear choices and pragmatic next steps rather than abstract theory.

As of 2026, Przesmicki continues to concentrate his practice on representing clients across Wisconsin and California.
