New Orleans-based Jones Walker has scooped up a team of six construction lawyers from Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton. The three partners in the group are Joe Henner, Neal Sweeney and Chad Theriot, with special counsel Karen Bain, Jennifer Lowndes and Tyler Scarbrough.

That greatly expands Jones Walker’s Atlanta office, which had three lawyers on the premises, headed by partner Stephen Drobny, a bankruptcy lawyer who joined Jones Walker’s Miami office in 2012 and later moved to Atlanta. Three others are cross-listed on the firm’s website from its Alabama and Louisiana locations. The office is in One Midtown Plaza at 1360 Peachtree St. N.E.
