On this episode of Broward Bar Buzz, Executive Director Braulio Rosa sits down with father-and-son attorneys Howard and Jacob Wander of Kelley Kronenberg for an insightful conversation about legal legacy, leadership, family influence, and the future of the legal profession.
Howard Wander, Principal Partner and Chief Operating Officer of the firm, reflects on his remarkable journey helping grow Kelley Kronenberg from a local practice into a statewide and national law firm through entrepreneurship, relationship-building, and visionary leadership. The discussion explores the challenges and opportunities that come with building a major law firm while maintaining culture, mentorship, and long-term relationships.
The conversation also highlights Howard’s influence on Jacob’s upbringing and professional development — from growing up around the practice of law to ultimately carving out his own path as an attorney with Kelley Kronenberg’s Justice for Kids Division, advocating for vulnerable and injured children.
Together, Howard and Jacob discuss generational perspectives on the profession, lessons learned from family and mentorship, the evolving legal industry, and where both Kelley Kronenberg and the next generation of attorneys go from here.
This episode is a powerful conversation about ambition, purpose, family, and the enduring impact of building something that lasts beyond yourself.
