Description

On May 1, 1912, George Donworth, a federal judge, and Elmer Todd, U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Washington, agreed to form a law firm that today has grown to become Perkins Coie. We celebrate the firm's 100th Anniversary by saying thank you to clients, lawyers, staff, colleagues and friends in all the communities we serve. The law firm currently known as Perkins Coie LLP was founded in Seattle on May 1, 1912 by former U.S. District Court Judge George Donworth and former U.S. Attorney Elmer Todd. Over the years, Perkins Coie has evolved from serving a small number of key clients such as Boeing and Puget Sound Energy, which remain clients today, to representing a full range of companies - from start-ups to FORTUNE 100 corporations. The firm practices in more than 100 areas of law and in a wide array of industries.
