Darren Bick

Exceptional guidance on a complex energy contract negotiation

When our small renewable energy startup needed to navigate a complex power purchase agreement with a major utility, we turned to Darren Bick at Bick & Steele. Despite his relatively recent admission to the bar, his command of energy law was immediately apparent. Darren meticulously explained the regulatory landscape and potential pitfalls in terms we could understand, demonstrating a depth of knowledge that belies his two years in practice. His recognition in the field of Energy Law, which we noted in his profile, was clearly well-earned. He was exceptionally responsive, often replying to our queries from his Portland office late into the evening, which we later learned was to accommodate our time zone differences. Darren’s strategic advice was instrumental in securing favorable terms that protected our interests without derailing the deal. His professionalism and sharp, focused expertise turned a daunting process into a manageable one, resulting in a solid foundation for our project’s future. We couldn’t have asked for better representation.
