==History==<br />
Reed Smith was founded in Pittsburgh in 1877 by [[Philander C. Knox]] and [[James H. Reed]].<ref name="History">{{cite web|title=History|url=http://www.reedsmith.com/aboutus/history/|publisher=Reed Smith|accessdate=6 March 2015|date=4 March 2015}}</ref> The two partners soon created a symbiotic relationship with the American industrial tycoon, [[Andrew Carnegie]], the creator of [[U.S. Steel]], the world's first billion-dollar corporation. Soon after, other large businesses such as, [[Heinz (company)]], Mellon and Frick joined the firm's client roster. In the 1880s, Edwin W. Smith and other partners joined the firm and in 1922 the firm adopted the name Reed Smith Shaw & McClay, a name that would stand until being shortened in 2000. During the New Deal era, Reed Smith established a securities practice and partner [[Ralph H. Demmler]] became chair of the [[Securities and Exchange Commission]].<ref name="History"/><br />
<br />
Through 1970 to the present, the firm engaged in a series of strategic mergers & acquisitions, as well as new offices, to create one of the largest law firms in the world.<br />
<br />
In the 1970s, Reed Smith domestically grew with new offices beyond Pittsburgh. It set up an office in Washington, DC and in 1989, merged with Beltway firm Pierson, Ball & Dowd, thereby obtaining a well-regarded health care practice. Reed Smith opened new offices in New York and New Jersey in the 1990s and acquired a leading [[Northern Virginia]] firm, Hazel & Thomas.<br />
<br />
During the 2000s Reed Smith experienced rapid international growth, both organically and through mergers. Acquiring the UK law firm Warner Cranston turned Reed Smith transatlantic in 2001 and opened offices in Paris and Munich four years later. Domestically, it opened an office in Delaware and combined with a California law firm, Crosby, Heafey, Roach & May, which moved the firm to a rank among the 20 largest law firms.<ref name="History"/> In 2007 Reed Smith merged with UK law firm, Richards Butler, which added offices in France, Greece, the Middle East and Hong Kong one year later.<ref>{{cite web|title=Reed Smith Richards Butler completes merger|url=http://www.thelawyer.com/reed-smith-richards-butler-completes-merger/123584.article|publisher=The Lawyer|accessdate=6 March 2015|date=2 January 2007}}</ref><br />

More than 275 lawyers comprise the Pittsburgh office, making it the largest law office in the city and the largest Reed Smith office in the United States.
