More than 50 years ago, a young man named Lewis Bose left a successful law firm to form what he called a different kind of law firm. He envisioned a place where friendships were important, built on a foundation of cooperation, mutual respect and excellence. He partnered with visionaries, Paul Buchanan, Charlie Cook, William Evans and Robert McKinney who, like himself, wanted their firm to be recognized as a trendsetter in the legal profession. Today, the legacy of our founding partners lives on. More than five decades later, Bose McKinney & Evans still embraces the principles our founders set forth. This is their story and the story of those who have served our clients through the decades, and today.
