About Kevin C.
Kevin C. Ellis is an associate at Kean Miller LLP who practices in Louisiana. He earned his law degree from the Paul M. Hebert Law Center at Louisiana State University in 2019, receiving both a J.D. and a D.C.L. He completed his undergraduate studies at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge, graduating in 2010 with a B.A. in International Studies.
Ellis's academic path combined regional legal training with an international studies background. His time at LSU included coursework that informed how he approaches transactions and regulatory questions. The dual degree from the Paul M. Hebert Law Center gave him exposure to state-specific doctrine and civil law concepts that are part of Louisiana practice.
After law school he joined Kean Miller LLP as an associate. At the firm he has worked on matters that require attention to land-related records, regulatory filings and client communications. He handles assignments that involve document review, drafting and negotiating agreements, and preparing legal memoranda for more senior attorneys.
He holds memberships in local and state professional groups. He is a current member of the Lafayette Association of Professional Landmen, the Lafayette Bar Association and the Louisiana State Bar Association. Those ties keep him connected to local practitioners and to professionals who handle property and energy transactions.
Colleagues describe him as methodical in legal research and practical in courtroom and transactional preparation. He approaches client problems by breaking them into discrete steps and clarifying next actions. The work requires frequent collaboration across practice groups, and he often coordinates with colleagues on title matters, contract language and regulatory strategy.
He is admitted to practice in Louisiana and works from Kean Miller LLP. His practice involves matters that touch on land, title and energy-related issues in the state of Louisiana.
