Law Firm Overview
Murane & Bostwick, LLC is a general practice law firm with offices in Casper and Cheyenne, Wyoming. We represent businesses and individuals as close as our next door neighbors to multi-national corporations and insurers from Tokyo to London.The firm became a partnership in 1949 and a limited liability company in 1997. Our beginnings, however, date back to 1926 when the late Edward E. Murane opened his law office in Casper. Ed Murane was a leader in numerous legal organizations, holding many state and national offices and chairmanships over his nearly 50 years as a practicing attorney. Richard R. Bostwick, who joined Ed Murane in 1949, retired from the firm in 1992. Both Dick and Ed were tough minded advocates for the firm's clients -- compromising and compassionate where appropriate, demanding and tenacious when necessary. The philosophy of the firm's founders remains its cornerstone.
Once an assignment is accepted, each problem or activity is analyzed from the standpoint of the client, taking into account the nature of the problem or assignment, the human and technical resources required to accomplish the desired goal, the risks and rewards of a particular course of action and the client's financial capacity to carry out any particular activity.
We make use of legal assistants and investigators where their services will be as effective as that of a lawyer, at substantially less cost to the client. We do not assign a senior partner to a task which an associate or junior member of the firm can handle as well. Where more than a single lawyer is required, Murane & Bostwick has the personnel and resources to administer, supervise and complete any complex assignment within the areas of our practice.
Our firm is engaged daily in litigation in state and federal courts in Wyoming, where we enjoy a reputation for hard-nosed advocacy, pursued without the all-too-prevalent vitriolic hostility toward opposing counsel or parties, which we believe seldom serves the client's interests and almost always results in increased costs.
Murane & Bostwick is an active member of ALFA International an international organization of over 125 independent law firms in the United States and numerous foreign countries. Selection to membership is by peer review. Clients of ALFA member firms benefit through the network of ALFA firms where legal problems involve more than one firm's jurisdiction.

Murane & Bostwick prides itself in providing quality legal services at a reasonable cost. While the ultimate cost of handling a particular matter is seldom known in advance, you are invited to discuss the subject of legal fees with our lawyers, as well as with attorneys outside this firm. In addition to hourly rates, we will consider blended, flat, contingent and other fee arrangements.
