About Us

Philadelphia Grown. Nationally Known.
Founded a century ago in Philadelphia, Stradley Ronon Stevens & Young, LLP's reputation for sensible, sophisticated and results-oriented client representation is, at its core, an extension of our culture: an ethos of collegiality and collaboration that begins with our lawyers and business professionals and radiates outward — to clients, community and beyond. At Stradley Ronon, we recognize that legal issues are not one-size-fits-all. We tailor our strategies and staffing to garner exceptional results at unparalleled value.

While our firm’s historical roots are deep, our vision has always been forward-looking. From the beginning, our longstanding connections in the public and private sector and the well-earned trust of our clients have put us at the center of pioneering work — such as establishing one of the first mutual funds in the United States in 1928 and, more recently, the creation of cryptocurrency-related exchange-traded funds.
Today, Stradley Ronon continues to strike a similar balance — and equanimity — in all that we do, from leading high-stakes courtroom conflicts to devising novel financing regimes to operationalizing innovative acquisition strategies. As our clients attest, Stradley Ronon’s approach is always determined, yet practical, flexible and resourceful. Wise enough to avoid overcomplication, we nonetheless remain ready to meet any moment, no matter how complex or contentious, with creativity, clarity and common sense.
