NEW YORK, NY (March 9, 2016) – Perkins Coie is pleased to announce that Keith Miller has been named Managing Partner of the firm’s New York office. Keith succeeds Schuyler Carroll, who served in the role since the firm opened its New York office in 2011.

Keith, a former SEC enforcement attorney, is also Chair of the firm’s White Collar and Investigations practice. He earned his J.D. from New England Law (cum laude) and received his M.A and B.A. from the University of Albany.

“The experience and industry knowledge that Keith has brought to our White Collar and Investigation practice is augmented by his credentials in New York and earned respect among his peers,” said John Devaney, Perkins Coie’s Firmwide Managing Partner. “Our New York office is expanding and, under Keith’s leadership, we are confident that we will continue to strengthen our roots and relationships in the New York market.”

Keith’s appointment to Managing Partner comes on the heels of the firm’s recent growth in New York, including the additions of Charles Torres as Partner in the Emerging Companies & Venture Capital practice, and three Intellectual Property veterans, William J. McCabe, Partner; Gene W. Lee, Partner; and Martin E. Gilmore, Senior Counsel. Additionally, the firm announced last year that it will nearly double its office space at 30 Rockefeller Plaza.
