Expert guidance on a complex energy joint venture

Anthony Speier provided exceptional counsel during our recent formation of a joint venture in the Permian Basin. His deep experience in energy law and corporate transactions, honed over two decades, was immediately apparent. He expertly navigated the complex acquisition and structuring phases, and his recognition in M&A law is clearly well-deserved. Anthony’s strategic thinking from the Houston office was invaluable, ensuring our interests were protected while keeping the deal on track. The one area where we experienced slight delays was in receiving draft revisions during peak periods, as his team seemed stretched. However, his personal involvement and the quality of the final agreements were outstanding. I would confidently engage him again for any significant corporate or energy asset matter.
