Virginia Lawyers Weekly has named Marks & Harrison to its 2026 list of Legacy Law Firms. This designation highlights firms that have maintained operations for at least 25 years while successfully navigating shifting economic and technological landscapes.
Established in 1911, the firm has operated for over a century. It currently manages a network of 14 locations across Virginia, Maryland, and Washington DC.
The firm maintains a staff of 34 attorneys and 130 support professionals. Their practice focuses on personal injury, wrongful death, disability claims, and workers' compensation cases.
The legal industry faces constant pressure to modernize as digital documentation and remote litigation requirements evolve. Firms that survive over multiple decades often demonstrate a balance between traditional client-facing service and the ability to integrate new administrative technologies.
This recognition highlights the importance of institutional stability in the legal sector. By maintaining a presence in local communities, firms like Marks & Harrison distinguish themselves through longevity and consistent case management rather than rapid expansion or experimental business models.
