Michael Darden provided exceptional counsel during our recent acquisition of a midstream services company. His deep knowledge of both corporate law and the specific regulatory landscape of the Texas energy sector was invaluable. We were particularly impressed with his strategic approach to the due diligence process, where his 18 years of experience in oil and gas and M&A truly showed. His recognition as Lawyer of the Year is well-deserved. The only minor critique would be that during peak periods, response times from his junior associates could occasionally lag. Overall, Michael is a formidable asset for any complex transaction in Houston's energy market.
