About

Provided by Winston Taylor LLP

Throughout our global network of offices, Winston has nearly 100 tightly aligned energy lawyers whose practices are distinguished by their ability to offer a fully integrated and innovative service platform to our clients, nationally and worldwide. For more than 35 years, our team has represented a wide range of players in the energy arenas, and our ability to merge multiple legal disciplines seamlessly brings a unique perspective to the representation of our clients and differentiates us from our peer energy and environmental law firms.

It is no surprise that our full-service energy sector approach, paired with our extensive industry experience, has garnered us a recognized track record of success. From advising on new energy policies and regulatory compliance; to counseling on all types of development agreements; and to representing clients in connection with the structuring and financing, and the acquisition and disposition of energy projects and portfolios—our energy lawyers handle it all. We offer counsel on cutting-edge market trends, including finance and tax matters, as well as support our clients’ interests in energy litigation. Additionally, our extensive experience extends to virtually all types of energy projects, including conventional fossil-fueled, gas- and coal-fired, combined-heat-and-power, renewable and alternative energy, and nuclear generating plants. We are also well versed in assisting on transmission, oil and gas pipelines, and gas storage facilities.
