Serving Communities
Kean Miller LLP is proud of its Louisiana heritage and our tradition of civic and charitable leadership in the communities where we live and work.
Capital Area United Way:
From 2003 through 2011, Kean Miller LLP has been recognized as "Best in Class" by the Capital Area United Way for Leadership Giving for Companies Under 500 Employees. Our lawyers currently serve on numerous Capital Area United Way agency boards, including: Baton Rouge Crisis Intervention Center, ARC of Baton Rouge, American Red Cross of Baton Rouge, Catholic Community Services, Arthritis Advocates of Louisiana, O'Brien House, Hospice of Baton Rouge, Big Buddy Program, and Capital Area CASA. In addition, hundreds of our employees contribute to the firm's United Way campaign, and over 40 Kean Miller LLP lawyers are Gottlieb Association contributors. Our partner Victor Gregoire currently serves on the Capital Area United Way Board of Directors.
Community and Civic Leadership:
Kean Miller LLP lawyers are actively engaged in community and civic service. Partners and associates are encouraged to commit their time and firm resources to civic and community affairs, often serving as officers, directors and board members of numerous charitable, civic, and community organizations, including:
In 2010, Kean Miller LLP was selected for the Louisiana Appleseed "Good Apple" award as a result of the firm's pro bono project on dating violence prevention. Kean Miller LLP attorneys helped research, draft, and pass legislation that requires dating violence prevention be taught in all Louisiana high schools. The award was given to the firm at the Louisiana Appleseed gala in New Orleans on January 20, 2011.
Kean Miller LLP Dictionary Project:
For nine years, our lawyers and staff have delivered free dictionaries to third-grade students in every public school in East Baton Rouge, West Baton Rouge, Iberville, and Calcasieu parishes. The Kean Miller LLP Dictionary Project has placed over 65,000 dictionaries in the hands of third-grade students across Louisiana. Through this project, Kean Miller LLP is helping children "read to learn" instead of "learn to read."
Volunteer Health Corps of Baton Rouge:
A team of business, health law, and health care regulatory attorneys from Kean Miller LLP were instrumental in helping to form and organize the Volunteer Health Corps of Baton Rouge. The organization is a non-profit established to assist with providing care to the uninsured in the Baton Rouge community. The group is a link between the private practice community and LSU in an effort to assist the State in providing health
care for those who need it the most -- and who are uninsured.
At Kean Miller LLP, giving back to the community is more than a convenient statement. It is the way we do business.
