Franklin Heritage, Inc. Honors Firm’s Commitment to Historic Preservation

The Criminal Defense Team of Baldwin, Perry & Wiley, PC is proud to announce that its flagship Franklin office has been awarded the 2026 Natural Beauty Award by Franklin Heritage, Inc. The honor recognizes the firm’s restoration of its 142-year-old historic downtown building — a landmark project that renewed the property’s original character while strengthening the architectural fabric of the community.

“It is truly an honor to invest in the history and future of the Franklin community. We are proud to be part of preserving the architectural character that makes Franklin so special, and we encourage continued support for local preservation and revitalization efforts throughout Johnson County.”

— Kathie Perry, Baldwin, Perry & Wiley, PC

The restoration was made possible in part through a 50/50 building grant awarded by the Franklin Development Corporation in 2024. The firm is grateful for that partnership and the role it played in returning this historic property to its original splendor.
