The stakes are high. The bench is deep. The opportunity is huge.

Ready for some real responsibility? Looking for an alternative to BigLaw? At Keker & Van Nest, we regularly take on cases that are headed for trial—the toughest cases with the most at stake. The lawyers we hire are eager to sit with the best, and across from the best. And when they get here, that’s what they do—from Day One.

Why Keker & Van Nest

There is no hiding here.

Our case teams are lean, so associates immediately gain the opportunity to work with senior partners, and take on serious responsibility.

We share a passion for litigation, and a trust for one another.

Partners don't wait to give responsibility, they trust our associates to handle litigation right from the start.

Your pro bono clients are as welcome as you are.

We’ve heard there are law firms that make you fight to take on a pro bono case. We’d rather you save your fight for the case itself.

Culture

A historic place to work. An exciting place to live.

Brick and timber architecture. Cheese-whiz cocktail parties. Softball tournaments. Oh, and trials too.

Great people, who are also great friends.

All of our attorneys eat lunch together twice a week. It's good for the firm, but they really do it because they like one another. Imagine that.

A tight-knit family of staff and associates that cares about the firm.

Ask about our "Den Mother," we'll point you in the right direction.
