History

The firm was founded in 1926 by Andrew Crummy, a World War I veteran who attended New York University and Harvard Law School. After working as an IRS agent he formed a law partnership which was originally called Crummy & Rossbach. John Joseph Gibbons, for whom the firm is currently named, originally joined the firm in 1950, and stayed until 1969 when he was appointed to the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. Gibbons returned to the firm in 1990, at which point the firm was called Gibbons, Del Deo, Dolan, Griffinger & Vecchione.

Gibbons is one of many large law firms providing counsel to the detainees at the Guantanamo Bay detention camp.

Practice areas

The firm is well known for its litigation practice, particularly in the area of civil rights. The John J. Gibbons Fellowship in Public Interest & Constitutional Law, founded by Judge Gibbons, represents and files amicus curiae briefs on behalf of poor and underrepresented parties, often on a pro bono publico basis. The firm also has practices in corporate law, securities, international trade, tax law, intellectual property, real estate, white-collar criminal defense, and many other areas.

The firm has been ranked one of the top 50 firms nationwide for working women by Working Mother magazine and among the top 100 for diversity by MultiCultural Law magazine.
