McKenna Storer was established in Chicago in 1954 by a group of seven experienced litigators. Their practice concentrated on civil litigation, utilizing their experience in the insurance industry.
Among these attorneys was Bill McKenna, an acknowledged leader in tort litigation. The firm membership changed but steadily grew and in 1975 the name McKenna, Storer, Rowe, White & Farrug was adopted.
At that time, the firm consisted of approximately 20 attorneys.
