Firm History

Through over nine decades, the firm has maintained a tradition of providing effective legal services of the highest caliber, earning its reputation as one of the premier law firms in Virginia.

Our firm came out of the early 1900s law practice of Edward R. Baird, Jr., an admiralty attorney working in Norfolk and Portsmouth. Mr. Baird was born in Essex County, VA, in 1867. In 1923, after about thirty years of practice, Mr. Baird joined with two other maritime attorneys—one from New York and one from Washington, D.C.—and formed the new law firm Baird, White & Lanning, with an office in Norfolk. The main practice areas in the early years were admiralty and railroad law.
