General Info

Dewey and Dewey's heritage in the legal profession is deeply rooted in Sandusky County, Ohio, operating since the 1880's. The firm was started by Thomas P. Dewey, who was admitted to the bar in 1879. His son Benjamin Harrison Dewey attended University of Michigan Law School and returned to Clyde to practice law alongside his father for many years. Thereafter, Thomas P. Dewey's grandson, Thomas Finley Dewey, followed in his father's footsteps and also attended University of Michigan Law School, becoming the third generation to practice at Dewey & Dewey. He then became the Sandusky County Prosecutor in 1948. Later, Thomas returned to the firm to practice with his two sons, John and Tom Jr., until his death in 1998. Today, the legal tradition is carried on by partners Tom Dewey, Jr., Ohio State Law, 1970, and John P. Dewey, Ohio State Law, 1972. The two brothers grew up in Clyde and graduated from Clyde High School with the strong belief that local knowledge is important in a small town practice. As a result of this belief, the Dewey brothers have become involved in numerous activities other than practicing law. Tom Jr. served eight years with the local school board and was a past director of the local bank. Currently, he is an active member of the Clyde Christian church as well as the Memorial Hospital Foundation and the Toledo District Golf Association. John P. Dewey has had the honor of being the youngest attorney ever to be appointed judge for the Sandusky County Court and has been sitting on the bench since 1975. During his time acting as the judge for the county court, John practices law and concentrates his efforts toward real estate law, domestic relations, and decedent's estates. In his spare time, John is active in the Clyde Heritage League and served as a past president of the Fremont Country Club and is an avid golfer. Recently, John P. Dewey was elected Common Pleas Judge of Sandusky County and will be sworn in on January 1st, 2009. As a result of being elected to sit as judge, John will no longer be practicing law at Dewey and Dewey, but will pass his caseload to his daughter, Rachel Jane Dewey. Like her father and uncle, Rachel grew up in Clyde and graduated from Clyde High School in 1999. She then attended Bowling Green State University with a BA in History in 2002, and later graduated from the Ohio Northern College of Law in May of 2008. Rachel successfully passed the July Ohio Bar Exam and was admitted by the Supreme Court of Ohio to practice law in on November 2008. Currently, she is practicing by the side of her Uncle, Thomas F. Dewey, Jr. Our firm highly values staff member, Linda Good, who assists the attorneys. Throughout the years, Dewey & Dewey Attorneys has proven itself to be a distinguished law firm that is in the business to solve your individual and business legal issues. We are proud to be the oldest law firm in the county, five generations strong.
