History
The story began on 17 November 1873 when Thomas Shearman and John Sterling opened a law practice in New York’s Fourth National Bank Building. Shearman, a former law rep-orter for The New York Times, and Sterling, who graduated first in his class from Columbia Law School, had worked for David Dudley Field, head of the New York bar. Together they brought a major client from Field’s law firm, industrialist Jay Gould, who became the firm’s main client.
