Milbank, Tweed, Hadley & McCloy LLP's evolution as a leading international financial services law firm parallels in many ways the economic development of the nation and the world for more than 140 years. Milbank's roots can be traced back to 1866, with the inception of the original firm, Anderson, Adams & Young. Over the years, many successor firms were created through the addition of new partners and the retirement or death of others. The first merger took place in April 1929, when the then-successor firm, Murray & Aldrich, combined with Webb, Patterson & Hadley and became Murray, Aldrich & Webb. In 1931, the firm merged with Masten & Nichols to become Milbank, Tweed, Hope & Webb. The Firm's present name dates from 1962.

Milberg LLP, founded in 1965, was one of the first law firms to prosecute class actions in federal courts on behalf of investors and consumers. The Firm pioneered this type of litigation and is widely recognized as a leader in defending the rights of victims of corporate and other large-scale wrongdoing. The Firm’s practice focuses on the prosecution of class and complex actions in many fields of commercial litigation, including securities, corporate fiduciary, ERISA, consumer, insurance, antitrust, bankruptcy, mass tort, and human rights litigation. The Firm has offices in New York City, Los Angeles, Tampa, and Detroit. In the Firm’s early years, its founding partners built a new area of legal practice in representing shareholder interests under the then recently amended Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, which allowed securities fraud cases, among others, to proceed as class actions. In the following decades, the Firm obtained decisions establishing important legal precedents in many of its areas of practice and prosecuted cases that set benchmarks in terms of case theories, organization, discovery, trial results, methods of settlement, and amounts recovered and distributed to clients and class members.

Former investor Michael Milken is behind the foundation that helps to give back. The Milken Family Foundation funds awards and grants in the areas of education and medical research. Its $25,000 Milken Educator Award is given to up to 80 teachers, specialists, and principals annually. Other initiatives include the Teacher Advancement Program, a teacher recruitment and development program, and the Milken Festival for Youth, which funds community service opportunities for primarily disadvantaged students. Brothers Lowell Milken (the organization's chairman) and Michael Milken (a trustee; also famously indicted on racketeering charges in 1989 after amassing a fortune on junk bonds) started the foundation in 1982.
