Spencer Fane announced earlier this week the addition of a public finance trio in Wichita, KS. The Kansas City-based firm expands it's presence in the state, opening a new office with this group. We at Compass Law congratulate the firm and are honored by the part we were able to play in facilitating this opening.
“We’re excited to welcome this team to Spencer Fane as we expand into a market that aligns with our clients’ priorities and improves our position to answer their call for highly experienced counsel in geographies and practice areas that matter most to their success,” said Spencer Fane Chair Patrick J. Whalen in the firm announcement. “J.T., Andrew, and Mary have spent their careers building an exceptional depth of knowledge in public finance and bond counsel matters – areas of law that demand both precision and insight. Their commitment to these practices has deservedly earned them national reputations that reflect the caliber of their work and the trust they’ve cultivated with clients and colleagues alike.”
Hayden Flowers, Managing Partner of Compass Law's Houston office, worked hard to make sure this was a win for both sides. "J.T., Andrew, and Mary were great to work with, and I am excited for the future and to see what their practice does on a bigger platform. Pat and I were grateful to have the chance to talk with such a quality group of lawyers, and, if the past is any indication, the Wichita office will grow significantly over the next year or two."
Spencer Fane continues to show why it is the fastest growing Am Law 200 firm in the past 5 years by revenue percentage. The firm is both grounded and nimble—able to grow strategically and without any debt, as well to take advantage of opportunities as they come in markets large and small.
