McShane & Bowie was founded in 1952 to meet the legal needs of the Grand Rapids real estate and business community. Despite having grown into a major presence in West Michigan, our attorneys have purposely retained the personalized, hands-on approach of a smaller, boutique firm.

Whatever the size, we treat every McShane & Bowie client as a long-term partner. Our lawyers have decades of experience to assist with your legal challenges and focus on adding value at every stage of the legal process. When you retain the services of a McShane & Bowie attorney, you gain a dedicated and highly skilled advocate.

McShane & Bowie lawyers serve clients with needs throughout the State of Michigan and certain practice groups service clients across the nation.
