==History==
In January 1879, the firm was founded in New York City as Browne & Witter through the partnership of Causten Browne and William C. Witter. Soon thereafter, the firm was renamed Browne, Witter and Kenyon after William H. Kenyon joined the partnership. In 1899, the firm changed its name to Kenyon & Kenyon. That same year, Kenyon became one of the first law firms to hire a female attorney.
In its early history, the firm litigated cases involving patents held by Thomas Edison, Nicola Tesla, and Charles Brush, which would later become known as the famous “Edison Light Bulb” patent cases. At the turn of the 20th century, when the automotive industry was beginning to take shape, the firm was also invited by Ford Motor Co. to defend it in a patent case involving the Selden patent, which threatened to stop production of Ford’s new “Model T.” Since its founding over 130 years ago, Kenyon has remained at the forefront of litigation involving pioneer patents which have helped shape industries.〔Kenyon & Kenyon History http://www.kenyon.com/About/FirmHistory.aspx〕
