Former Dentons Partner Edward Keller has joined alternative investment firm Alpha Blue Ocean as its General Counsel and Chief Legal Officer.

Keller was part of White & Case's Budapest office, which moved in its entirety to Dentons in 2015 (as reported by CEE Legal Matters on April 15, 2015). He first joined White & Case in 2000.

"After 20 years of private practice it was time for a new challenge and to get involved more on the business side," Keller explained. "ABO is an incredible and very dynamic group and I am really excited to be part of the team. My practice at Dentons was going well which made the decision difficult but ABO was increasingly becoming my biggest client and the worked with them was incredibly gratifying, which lead to my ultimate decision to join them. I am looking forward to being a client of Dentons now."
