More than a half-century ago, a local attorney named Lewis C. Bose left a successful Indianapolis law firm to found what he called “a different kind of law firm.” Bose, a Yale Law School graduate and World War II veteran, envisioned a law firm that stressed cooperation, mutual respect and excellence. He partnered with other local visionaries to start a firm which would be a leader in the local legal community.

Lew Bose died in 2001 at the age of 83, but nearly six decades after Bose founded the firm, his successors continue to embrace the founding principles. In the spirit of its founder, Bose McKinney & Evans remains dedicated to responsiveness, innovation and excellence.
