Hale and Dorr LLP
Since Richard Hale and Dudley Dorr joined their practices to form Hale and Dorr on July 1, 1918, there have been enormous changes in the law. The law has become more complex because business and technology have become more complex, and because technology has had a huge impact on the overall pace of doing business. Where once every lawyer was a generalist, now we are a firm of specialists.
We operate much like our entrepreneurial clients, utilizing fresh and inventive approaches and benefitting from the collaborative strength of multi-disciplinary teams. Throughout our history, innovation has been a key element in achieving and sustaining our progress.
Staying ahead means not only participating, but more importantly, playing a leading role in shaping change. Over the years, Hale and Dorr has used innovation and entrepreneurial thinking to effect significant change in the practice of law and the conduct of business.
