Stoel Rives grew up with some of the Northwest’s earliest railroads and electric utility companies. Having gone through many name changes over the years, the current firm is the result of the 1979 merger of two important Portland firms—Davies, Biggs, Strayer, Stoel and Boley; and Rives, Bonyhadi and Smith—followed by the 1987 joinder with the Seattle firm Jones, Grey and Bayley; the firm’s expansion to Boise and Salt Lake City in the 1990s; and the 2001 combination with the California-based firm Washburn, Briscoe and McCarthy.

In 2007, the firm expanded to the Midwest for the first time, when it opened an office in the Twin Cities. Encouraged perhaps by the ability of visiting Stoel Rives lawyers to endure the Minnesota winter cold, the firm opened an office in Anchorage, Alaska, in 2008. The latest expansion came in 2013, when the firm opened an office in Washington, D.C.

The roots of the firm of Davies, Biggs, Strayer, Stoel and Boley date to 1883, the year the Northwest’s first transcontinental railroad was completed with Portland its terminus.

That year Charles H. Carey began a long career—practicing law in Portland and representing the Northern Pacific Railroad as its Oregon counsel. Carey, who later penned the still-popular “General History of Oregon,” formed a partnership with James B. Kerr in 1907.

In 1905 Kerr came west from St. Paul, Minnesota to represent the Northern Pacific Railroad when it joined with the Great Northern Railroad to construct the Spokane, Portland & Seattle Railroad (SP&S) line along the north bank of the Columbia River, which provided both railroads access from Spokane to Portland.

Kerr went on to become one of the great land lawyers in the region and continued to handle the Northern Pacific’s tangled land and grant problems. Thomas B. Stoel joined the Davies firm in 1937. He became a nationally recognized corporate and tax lawyer.
