Energy
No industry feels the impact of world events more quickly and acutely than the energy industry. Market volatility for oil, natural gas, electricity, nuclear power and other energy forms is becoming the norm. Duane Morris has the knowledge, bench strength and both national and international reach to guide our energy clients through the complicated, intersecting grids of the industry. Our clients range from the national, state and local governments and agencies that create the policies, rules and regulations, to producers and distributors of energy, including refineries, utilities and multi-state and international operating facilities, to large users of energy, in the form of chemical, oil, pharmaceutical, and manufacturing and industrial companies. We also represent real estate and financial institutions, private water supply developers, agricultural interests, insurers, sanitary and utility districts, joint powers authorities and industry associations.
To serve such a diverse client base within this challenging environment, Duane Morris has assembled a team of lawyers who bring transactional and litigation experience from a wide variety of legal disciplines, including corporate, tax, environmental, real estate, project finance, bankruptcy and labor and employment. At the core of our Energy practice are attorneys who have spent their entire careers working within the industry, holding leadership positions with federal and local energy commissions before joining Duane Morris and focusing their efforts on understanding and anticipating energy policies and laws for our clients.
Our attorneys have represented clients before federal and state courts, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), the Department of Energy (DOE), the Department of the Interior (DOI), the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and numerous state regulatory commissions. We work closely with the National Association of Regulated Utility Commissioners and all of the major energy trade associations.
In addition to our extensive experience in the U.S., our attorneys have sophisticated knowledge of international energy matters. We have worked with ministries of energy and resources around the world and have advised on energy issues, in Mexico, Canada, the United Kingdom, the former Soviet Union, Eastern Europe, Africa, Indonesia, China and elsewhere for many years.
