Strengthening capabilities on the funds side through the hire of Clay Brett who brings expertise and knowledge from previous in-house experience, as well as M&A, financing and capital markets proficiencies in the form of ex-Vinson & Elkins LLP duo Caitlin Lawrence and Andrew Schulte, Baker Botts L.L.P.‘s multidisciplinary team continues to be frequently sought out by a multitude of clients due to its reputation as a leading player in the oil and gas sector. Tax, regulatory, and environmental acumen underpin the group’s range of transactions that comprehensively encompass upstream, midstream and downstream, with an increased flow of mandates pertaining to carbon capture and gas gathering that sit alongside its multi-billion-dollar basin M&A and commercial agreement deals. The practice is led by three individuals who operate out of Houston, Austin and Dallas respectively: Jason Bennett, who has been predominantly active on CCUS and novel RNG ventures; Mike Bengston, who works closely with companies and investors on a wealth of M&A, private equity and capital markets transactions; and David Emmons, who is highly regarded for his corporate finance practice. Steven Miles‘ eminent sector reputation continues to generate significant activity for the group, while Larry Hall is a leading advisor to the firm’s most consequential oil investors and operators on M&A, possessing impressive geographical coverage. Scott Looper is recognized for his extensive work in the midstream space while also being an active presence on the firm’s gas gathering, treating and CO2 sequestration contractual work, whereas Erin Hopkins regularly engages with M&A and acquisition financing in the upstream space. Jonathan Platt is equally instructed by public and private companies on a range of transactions. Gerry Morton and Clint Rancher are further names of note in Houston.
