In 1994, our founders left a large downtown firm convinced that clients deserved more direct access to the people actually doing their legal work. Kestrel & Rowe was built around that principle and has never drifted from it.
Today we're a six-practice firm of 51 attorneys, still small enough that every client has a partner's direct line — and large enough to take on matters that used to require a firm three times our size.
