The Mansour Gavin story: 1954 to today.

Formerly Merkel, Campbell, Dill and Zetzer, the firm began as the partnership of Reese Dill and Henry Zetzer in 1954. Ernest Mansour joined in 1955. In the late 1950s, the firm relocated from The Terminal Tower to 55 Public Square, in the heart of downtown Cleveland. In 1977, the firm restructured and became known as Mansour, Gavin, Gerlack & Manos Co., LPA.

The firm continued its growth over the next 30 years, increasing to its current size of 22 attorneys. In 2014, the firm simultaneously re-branded to become Mansour Gavin LPA and undertook its first office move in more than 50 years, relocating to North Point Tower at the corner of East 9th Street and Lakeside Avenue.

Today, Mansour Gavin provides a wide range of legal services to many successful privately held and publicly traded corporations. While we routinely handle complex legal matters, our firm focuses much of its attention on small and middle-market clients based in Northeast Ohio.
