History

Warner Norcross traces its roots to May 1, 1931 when three attorneys from West Michigan joined forces to launch the law firm in Grand Rapids.[4] David A. Warner, George S. Norcross and Siegel W. Judd brought varied business and legal experience to Warner Norcross & Judd, which handled a broad range of corporate work, including securities, reorganizations, real estate transactions and bankruptcies.

The three co-founders established a reputation for creative, proactive service. They also fostered an environment that supported participation in the broader life of the community through leadership positions in business associations, on corporate boards of directors and as volunteers in civil organizations.
