 The
history of the Holmes and Holmes law firm in Cedar Rapids,
Iowa, can be traced back to 1919 when Stewart Holmes graduated
from Iowa Law School and joined his uncle and two others in
the firm of Redmond, Stewart, Penningroth and Holmes.
Stewart Holmes practiced law as a sole practitioner beginning
in 1937.
In
1951, James T. Holmes graduated from Duke Law School and joined
his father, Stewart, in the practice of law. Together, they
formed the Holmes and Holmes law firm. Stewart died in 1959,
and James T. continued his law practice as a sole practitioner.
In
1988, a Holmes and Holmes law firm was formed again when James
C. joined his father, James T. Holmes, in the law practice.
From
1919 to the present, the firm has been in the same building,
first known as the Cedar Rapids Savings Bank Building, now
the Guaranty Bank Building.
