On May 8, 2025, the BakerHostetler Philadelphia office hosted a memorable alumni event at their Center City location. The gathering attracted more than 60 guests, including BakerHostetler alumni, current attorneys and alumni from Woodcock Washburn, which merged with BakerHostetler in 2014. The venue was adorned with nostalgic signage and relics from the Woodcock Washburn era, complemented by a slideshow showcasing more than 25 years of the Philadelphia office's history through photographs.
Office Managing Partner Dan Goettle warmly greeted everyone, sharing intriguing alumni trivia and generating plenty of laughter. Attendees traveled from as far as California to join the reunion, with six alumni having dedicated more than 20 years to Woodcock Washburn. Goettle remarked, “It is wonderful to see the connections that have continued throughout the years. The alumni from Woodcock Washburn and BakerHostetler have shaped us into the firm we are today, and we are grateful for their continued friendship and support.”
