Kean Miller's growth over the years has been fueled both by hiring law school graduates and by strategic acquisitions of lateral partners, groups, and associates.  Within the last three years, we have added 8 lateral partners and 20 lateral associates at all experience levels.  As our practice continues to grow and prosper, we will continue to be open to and explore strategic opportunities with outstanding lawyers with excellent credentials and client relationships.  Kean Miller LLP is an exceptional -- and stable -- place to work.  Our full-service practice, Louisiana platform, and unique culture have proven attractive to lateral partners who wish to broaden the depth of legal services available to their clients. In 28 years, while growing from 11 to 125 lawyers, Kean Miller LLP has lost only one partner to a competing Louisiana law firm.   This unparalleled stability during a period of such explosive growth is clear evidence of the stability bred by our firm culture.

Lateral candidates are invited to meet with key partners and firm management on a confidential basis.  After those preliminary discussions, if both parties continue to have interest, further negotiations will follow.
