Future of Miami

Post by Anonymous User » Sat Jan 22, 2022 1:14 pm

Wondering what y'all think about the future of the legal market in Miami -

Will more market-paying firms open up shop there? Is it going to be another "primary market" in 5-10 years? I know at least 1 big name PE firm (KE client) moved there last year, so I wonder if KE might open up an office there sometime soon.

Thanks folks

There are definitely rumblings about Kirkland moving into Miami. My suspicion is that they want to get their Salt Lake City and Austin offices on firm footing before they dive back in to open another one, which would almost certainly be Miami. I could see this getting done as early as this year.

Miami will probably grow into a market like Austin in the next few years, imo. It'll have a few biglaw shops down there for specific reasons, but it'll lack the firm coverage you see in LA/SF/Chicago/DC.
