Our St. Louis office opened in 1997 with the successful merger with St. Louis-based Schoenbeck, Schoenbeck & Associates law firm -- well known trial lawyers. That tradition of excellence in above and beyond client service, client industry expertise and top-notch attorneys continues today. The St. Louis office has more than doubled in number of attorneys in the past two years alone, growing in number to 28. The St. Louis Business Journal's 2004 ranking of area firms lists Lathrop & Gage at #21, jumping all the way from #36 the year before. Moreover, the firm, which only last year doubled our office space in St. Louis in a move to 10 S. Broadway, has recently added 7,000 square feet.

But we've seen growth in St. Louis in more ways than office space and number of lawyers. We have strong, growing client relationships in business litigation, corporate, general business and taxation, labor and employment, environmental, government relations, election law, economic incentives, zoning and real estate law and bankruptcy. Additionally, our practice in St. Louis extends to Southern Illinois with significant trial, real estate and corporate work for clients.
