gelatin or any of the other finings will help. One of the tried and true methods is to crash cool your beer prior to racking to the keg or bottling bucket. The duration of the crash cool is debatable. What works well for me is a couple of days prior to kegging I'll cool the fermenter down to 34°F and leave it at that temp while I'm racking. Some of he proteins precipitate at the cooler temps. so you'll want to maintain that temp during racking or they'll go back into solution and show up when you chill your beer. All but my hefe clear up nicely and don't require any filtering.
