ABOUT THIS COMPANY:

Company History


Butler, Snow, O'Mara, Stevens & Cannada's roots go way back, but it was established in its current form in 1954, when two prestigious Mississippi firms-Butler, Snow & O'Mara and Stevens & Cannada-banded together. Since then the firm has grown from little more than half a dozen lawyers to upwards of 150. These days it's the largest firm in the Magnolia state, with lawyers stationed in offices in Jackson, Miss., Gulfport, Miss., and Memphis, Tenn., and 9 different practice groups. Nationally, it has been recognized by Chambers for its product liability practice (it also got impressive state rankings for corporate, employment, real estate and commercial litigation), and 25 of its lawyers were listed in The Best Lawyers in America.
