About

Provided by Kean Miller LLP

Kean Miller has represented the Louisiana energy industry since its earliest days of oil and gas exploration in the Bayou state. Many of the firm's national and international energy clients came to our predecessor firm in the 1920s for assistance in the acquisition of land for their first Louisiana refining sites. As these companies expanded in Louisiana, so did the variety and complexity of their legal needs. Today, these energy and petrochemical clients continue to rely on Kean Miller for their legal services based on our understanding of the complex needs of the industry, our knowledge of their business, and our unique Louisiana know-how.
