David Coull garners praise for his expertise in oil and gas law as well as his experience handling major transactions within the sector.

David is a realist who understands the energy landscape and the systems-level complexities extremely well. He is always punctual, thorough and well-informed.

I could not recommend David more highly for complex commercial and service agreements. The agreements drafted by David continue to deliver us the best outcomes in the face of numerous challenges.
