Results through empowered advocacy.

Our energy team offers the full array of transactional, regulatory, litigation and advisory services to clients spanning every segment of the energy space, from the extraction, marketing and delivery of fuel sources, to power generation and associated waste mitigation, to distribution and retail delivery, to the development, construction and closure of energy facilities. Clients turn to us for experienced guidance at each unique phase of project development.

We assist regulated and unregulated energy companies and their customers in the development and execution of sophisticated financing, tax, renewable portfolio, fuel, siting, land use and joint venture strategies, as well as in the maintenance and commercialization of their intellectual property and trade secret assets. We also represent energy industry participants in complex environmental and commercial litigation, and in a variety of permitting, enforcement and regulatory proceedings before state and federal agencies.

Our team has a significant bench of experienced attorneys who regularly handle large, quick-turnaround due diligence and discovery projects for our energy clients.
