GRSM is a national full-service law firm founded in 1974, with more than 1,800 attorneys and 85+ offices across all 50 U.S. states.
GRSM, formerly Gordon Rees Scully Mansukhani, is a national full-service law firm founded in San Francisco in 1974. The firm employs more than 1,800 attorneys across 85 or more offices and ranks among the 15 largest law firms in the United States. It entered the Am Law 100 in 2020, five decades after its founding.
The firm's defining feature is its geographic reach: in 2019 it became the first and only law firm with offices in all 50 states. This 50-state platform is designed to deliver single-firm representation nationwide while retaining localized expertise in each jurisdiction, giving clients consistent service across state lines. The firm describes its practice as comprehensive, spanning the full range of legal services.
GRSM has grown quickly. Attorney headcount rose 15% in 2023, a rate the firm notes was nearly five times the industry average. Growth has been accompanied by a formal recognition culture: in 2014 the firm was renamed to honour the contributions of partners Miles Scully and Roger Mansukhani to its expansion.
The firm's stated foundations are hard work, responsiveness, camaraderie and client service. Its origin story is one of collaboration across rivalries - founders Stu Gordon and Don Rees set aside competing allegiances to Cal and Stanford in building the practice - and the firm continues to emphasise diversity of background alongside efficiency and a seamless client experience.
