Jami McKeon is the Chair of Morgan Lewis, the largest law firm in the world led by a woman. The first woman chair in the firm’s 150-year history, she was elected unanimously to a second five-year term beginning in 2019. In implementing a strategic approach focused on client needs, Jami has spearheaded large combinations that have significantly expanded the services of the firm’s 2,000-plus lawyers in 31 offices across 17 time zones. Morgan Lewis now ranks as one of the largest law firms in the United States and is among the top 25 in the world. Under her leadership, the firm has created a number of industry-leading initiatives, including ML Women, which generates opportunities for the firm’s women lawyers to come together around a shared industry, practice, or jurisdiction. Jami also directed the creation of the Ramp Up Program, which allows for a substantial reduction in the billable hours’ expectations for associates following an extended leave, and the Remote Working Program, which facilitates the ability of some lawyers to work outside the office. Another firmwide program that was launched in 2019, ML Well, promotes the health and well-being of all of the firm’s legal and professional personnel. In 2018, more than half the associates promoted to partner were women, the highest percentage among The American Lawyer’s largest 15 firms. In 2019, Morgan Lewis improved upon that record by increasing to 60% women in the partnership class. Women comprise more than one-quarter of Morgan Lewis’s practice leaders, including The American Lawyer Attorney of the Year recipient Grace Speights, who leads the firm’s 250-lawyer labor and employment practice, and more than one third of the firm’s Advisory Board members are women. Jami has received numerous honors for her devotion to the advancement of women and diversity and inclusion. Recent accolades include the Paradigm Award from the Chamber of Commerce for Greater Philadelphia and Take the Lead Honoree from the Girl Scouts of Eastern Pennsylvania. Additionally, Jami was selected for the fifth consecutive year to participate in the Fortune–US Department of State Global Women’s Mentoring Partnership.
