History

In 1921, Maurice Bower Saul begins Saul, Ewing, Remick & Saul, along with his brother, Walter Biddle Saul, Joseph Ewing and Raymond Remick.[3]

The partners combined their strengths in banking, estate management, litigation, international commerce, tax and real-estate development to work with many of the clients served by John G. Johnson, the leader of the Philadelphia bar who had died in 1917. Over the years, the firm continued to grow, expanding outside of Pennsylvania in 1982 with an office in Wilmington, Delaware. By 1998, the firm attained regional status, with offices in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware and Maryland. In 2000, the firm shortened its name to Saul Ewing and became a limited liability partnership. The firm expanded its footprint with offices in Boston, Mass. (2011) and Pittsburgh, Pa. (2012).[4][5]

Saul Ewing was named a "Pennsylvania Powerhouse" firm by Law360 for several years.[6] Under the direction of Managing Partner Barry F. Levin, in 2017, the firm completed its largest merger to date, combining with Chicago-based Arnstein & Lehr LLP, an established, 125-year-old firm, known for its litigation, bankruptcy and real estate practices.[7] The combination added four offices in Illinois and Florida and 140 attorneys, bringing the firm's total number of attorneys to more than 400.
