History

[edit]

The firm was founded in 1950. One partner, Edward I. Koch, served as the mayor of New York from 1978 through 1989.[1] and joined the law firm in 1990.[2] An associate, Mildred Trouillot, later became the first lady of Haiti.[3] Another associate, Rand Levin, began as a litigator for the firm before later becoming the Vice Senior President, Business & Legal Affairs at Universal Music Group.[4][5] U. S. federal judge Leonard B. Sand was a partner for 19 years when the firm was called Robinson, Silverman, Pearce, Aronsohn, Sand and Berman.[6][7]

One of the name partners, Alan J. B. Aronsohn, died in 2008.[8]

Merger

In July 2002, it merged with St. Louis–based Bryan Cave LLP to become Bryan Cave Robinson Silverman.[9] In January 2003, the firm's name officially reverted to Bryan Cave.
