Stoel Rives LLP

Stoel Rives grew up with some of the Northwest’s earliest railroads and electric utility companies. Having gone through many name changes over the years, the current firm is the result of the 1979 merger of two important Portland firms—Davies, Biggs, Strayer, Stoel and Boley; and Rives, Bonyhadi and Smith—followed by the 1987 joinder with the Seattle firm Jones, Grey and Bayley; the firm’s expansion to Boise and Salt Lake City in the 1990s; and the 2001 combination with the California-based firm Washburn, Briscoe and McCarthy. In 2007, the firm expanded to the Midwest for the first time, when it opened an office in the Twin Cities.

Encouraged perhaps by the ability of visiting Stoel Rives lawyers to endure the Minnesota winter cold, the firm opened an office in Anchorage, Alaska, in 2008. The latest expansion came in 2013, when the firm opened an office in Washington, D.C.
