Expert guidance through a complex mineral lease dispute

Our company retained Aimee Hebert of Kelly Hart & Hallman to handle a contentious dispute over the termination of a mineral lease. The opposing party was aggressive, and the legal intricacies surrounding the implied obligations to develop were substantial. From our first meeting, Ms. Hebert’s deep, 27-year foundation in Louisiana energy law was evident. She didn't just recite statutes; she explained the practical implications for our business with clarity, drawing on her recognized expertise in Natural Resources and Energy Law. Her strategic approach was meticulous—she anticipated counterarguments we hadn't considered and built a compelling case that ultimately led to a very favorable settlement. Her recent recognition as Lawyer of the Year is well-deserved. The only slight critique, and why this is a 4-star review, is that during the busiest phases, communication could sometimes take a day or two, which created minor anxiety on our end. However, when she did respond, her answers were comprehensive and decisive. We highly recommend her for any complex energy or mineral-related legal challenge in the Gulf Coast region.
