Isaac McPherson Gregorie Jr

Practice Areas

Mack Gregorie delivers extensive experience and proven skill in advising on and executing all types of business, corporate, and financing transactions, including large-scale, complex commercial, and industrial real estate finance and project development initiatives. Among Mack’s clientele are major global, national, and local petrochemical clients, worldwide energy producers, renewable solar energy companies, and banks and financial institutions.

Mack represents buyers and sellers, landlords and tenants, and lenders and companies alike. Mack’s transactional real estate experience includes large-scale, heavy industrial petrochemical industry development and solar projects frequently valued in the hundreds of millions of dollars. Notably, Mack was recently involved in negotiating the largest title insurance policy written in the country at the time involving a $10+ billion Liquified Natural Gas ("LNG") export facility initiative. At the beginning of his career, Mack focused on LNG import projects into the US. Today, he advises on similar deals, but in reverse on the export side. He is particularly effective and knowledgeable due to his hands-on experience on both sides of these transactions.

Moreover, Mack represents banking and other lending institutions on all types of financing deals and in particular, large scale, high dollar value project finance transactions. Mack understands that financial institutions today are focused more on ensuring ROI, which means Mack works with them to conduct a deep level of due diligence and analysis prior to investment.

As a legal strategist and acute and persuasive negotiator, Mack is among only a handful of attorneys in the state who are both qualified and capable of advising on these types of per capita transactions and major development projects. Mack is among the very shortest list of go-to attorneys in Louisiana retained by major AmLaw 100 firms seeking local counsel for their national project finance and development initiatives.

In addition to his law degree, Mack is a Certified Public Accountant. He lectures frequently on real property-related topics, such as real estate purchase and sales agreements, leasing, property law, and recent developments in real estate law and practice. He also serves as a title agent for First American Title Insurance Company, Fidelity National Title Insurance Company, and Chicago Title Insurance Company.
