History

The firm was created by a merger between Windels, Marx, Davies & Ives, a firm founded in the 1830s, and Lane & Mittendorf.[1] In its infancy, the firm provided a number of integral representations, including litigation defending Thomas Edison's ownership of the creation of the lightbulb[2] and the original incorporation of IBM in the 1920s.

As of 2016, the firm employs approximately 140 legal professionals in four offices, headquartered in the CitySpire Center in New York City, with additional locations in Connecticut and New Jersey.

gollark: That definition seems pretty orthogonal to actual common meanings.
gollark: One could say it's kind of bees.
