Kirkland & Ellis hires Beinus for LA office

Michael Beinus has joined the Los Angeles office of Kirkland & Ellis as a tax partner, moving from Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom.

Kirkland & Ellis hopes that hiring Beinus will help the firm to continue to grow its LA office’s corporate practice. Beinus is an alumnus of the University of California and was part of the Skadden team which won the Los Angeles Tax Firm of the Year award at ITR’s 2013 Americas Awards.
