Alexander Hamilton, who was an accomplished attorney, hired our Firm’s founder, William Rawle to represent him when he needed a lawyer. Since that time, countless clients follow in Hamilton’s footsteps when they place their trust and confidence in our firm whenever they “enter the room where it will happen.” They do so because they know that Rawle does not just have a long and prestigious history, but we can be counted on to provide legal services consistent with our proud legacy.

For Firm offices that were required to temporarily close, our attorneys and paralegals continue to work remotely.
