New York State and American Bar Associations. Founded in 1892 by Charles Winthrop Gould and John Lincoln Wilkie, Gould & Wilkie is one of New York"s oldest law firms.
The firm has traditionally been home to outstanding lawyers, the most prominent of whom was Learned Hand, a partner at the firm from 1904 to 1909 when he was appointed to the federal bench by President Taft.
Gould & Wilkie"s alumni and current lawyers include a President of the New York State Bar Association, two Chief Executive Officers of major utilities (one of whom is today the firm"s senior partner) and other leaders in the business and legal communities. With its excellent lawyers and blue chip clients, Gould & Wilkie possesses the qualities to grow to a large size, but has consciously remained small. The essence of this decision is a dedication to the profession of law, rather than the business of law, with its elaborate bureaucratic and administrative machinery and attendant high fixed cost structure.
As a result, the firm takes pride in its ability to provide partner performed legal services at excellent values to its clients.
