[edit] History

Pillsbury's history can be traced to the birth of Stimson, Putnam & Roberts, the New York City precursor to Winthrop, in 1868. However, the true heart of the firm, Pillsbury, Madison & Sutro, was established in San Francisco following the Gold Rush, helping to create such giants as Chevron and Pacific Bell, now known as AT&T. Mergers with Los Angeles-based Lillick & McHose in 1990 and Washington, DC-based Cushman Darby & Cushman in 1996 created a firm with a presence on both coasts, and 2001 merger with Winthrop expanded the New York office, which became the firm's headquarters. Pillsbury as we know it today is the product of a recent 2005 merger between Pillsbury Winthrop and DC-based Shaw Pittman, a small 300 lawyer law firm with strengths in global sourcing, energy, real estate, technology and communications.[1]
