Expert guidance on a complex offshore contract dispute

We engaged Mr. McGoey at Liskow & Lewis when a significant contract dispute arose with a service provider on one of our Gulf of Mexico platforms. His deep, two-decade background in both maritime and energy law was immediately apparent. He navigated the complex interplay of maritime contracts and Louisiana state law with precision, crafting a strategy that protected our interests without unnecessary escalation. His practical understanding of offshore operations, drawn from years in the New Orleans legal community, allowed him to grasp the technical nuances quickly. The outcome was highly favorable. While his billing is commensurate with his expertise and firm stature, clearer upfront communication on certain administrative costs would have been helpful. Overall, we felt in exceptionally capable hands.
