Our founders aspired to create a different kind of law firm when they launched Crowell & Moring in 1979. From those bold beginnings, our mission has been to provide our clients with the best services of any law firm in the world through a spirit of trust, respect, cooperation, collaboration, and a commitment to giving back to the communities around us.

Today, Crowell lawyers are as passionate about the firm and its role in helping clients to advance their ambitions as the firm’s founding partners were 45+ years ago. Our conviction that diverse teams are the key to truly innovative thinking and outcomes is at the heart of our differentiated approach to client service. That’s why many of the world’s leading companies turn to us for their mission-critical needs. Drawing on significant government, business, and industry experience, the firm advises clients on complex litigation, regulatory and policy, intellectual property, and corporate and transactional matters. Crowell & Moring partners with clients to capitalize on opportunities, mitigate risk, and deliver value based on their definition.
