Nelson & Schmeling was born of the 1981 merger of two lawfirms:

In 1950 Robert E. Nelson founded what evolved into the lawfirm of Nelson & Mudd. The partners and associate lawyers were all Certified Public Accountants as well as lawyers, and the firm's primary emphasis was--and the practice of Brian R. Mudd, Michael D. Willis. and Eric W. Hansen remains--on tax, probate, and estate planning matters.

Schmeling, Muraski & Wheeler was founded in 1972. That firm was oriented toward the general practice of law, with the partners specializing in areas of the law in which they had particular expertise and interest. That remains the case for Todd J. Schmeling, John A. Muraski, Charles H. Wheeler, Sharren B. Rose, and Thomas W. Roznowski.

The 1981 merger between Nelson & Mudd and Schmeling, Muraski & Wheeler resulted from the partners' perception that neither of the existing lawfirms was fully equipped to handle the widest range of their respective clients' legal problems in the developing age of specialization in the practice of law. Two decades of experience since the merger has proven beyond doubt the validity of that perception.
