STEVENS POINT, WI, July 13, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ — Anderson O’Brien, LLP, a full-service law firm in downtown Stevens Point, is marking 140 years of continuous legal practice in central Wisconsin.
Since 1886, the firm has served individuals, families, and businesses across Portage County and surrounding communities through periods of significant growth and change in the region.
The milestone places Anderson O’Brien among the oldest continuously operating law firms in Wisconsin. Few legal practices in the state have maintained uninterrupted service to the same region for more than a century.
Over that span, the firm has represented multiple generations of central Wisconsin families and businesses, building long-term relationships that in some cases extend across decades. That continuity reflects the firm’s role as a community institution in Stevens Point and across central Wisconsin.
Anderson O’Brien has maintained its presence in downtown Stevens Point throughout its history, serving clients in Portage, Adams, Waupaca, Waushara, and Wood counties. The firm’s current office at 1257 Main Street sits not far from the original location at 933A Main Street, where brothers Byron B. Park and Gilbert L. Park opened the practice in 1886.
The Park brothers established a collaborative model from the firm’s earliest years. Rather than practicing in isolation, as was common among attorneys of that era, they built a team-based approach that drew on the combined knowledge of multiple lawyers to serve clients.
The firm began recruiting and mentoring younger attorneys early in its history, hiring law students as clerks before they entered practice. Over 140 years, Anderson O’Brien has grown alongside central Wisconsin, adapting to changing legal needs while maintaining its roots in downtown Stevens Point.
What began as a two-attorney office has developed into a team of 15 attorneys who concentrate in distinct areas of law. The firm today provides legal services in personal injury, litigation, business and corporate law, estate planning, elder law, family law, employment law, real estate, tax planning, and workers’ compensation.
The firm has received AV Preeminent peer-review recognition through Martindale-Hubbell, and individual attorneys have been recognized by Super Lawyers. Anderson O’Brien’s attorneys participate in local organizations, nonprofits, and civic activities throughout central Wisconsin.
As it enters its 141st year, Anderson O’Brien, LLP, continues to operate from Stevens Point with the same commitment to collaborative legal representation and community service that defined the firm at its founding. The firm remains focused on serving the next generation of central Wisconsin clients, families, and businesses while adapting to the evolving legal challenges they face.
Anderson O’Brien, LLP is a full-service law firm founded in 1886 and headquartered in Stevens Point, Wisconsin. The firm’s 15 attorneys concentrate in personal injury, litigation, business and corporate law, estate planning, elder law, family law, employment law, real estate, tax planning, and workers’ compensation.
