We have advised our long time clients as well as many new clients in connection with issues and opportunities created by the discovery of the Haynesville Shale. We have attorneys who served as project counsel in the development and operation of the first commercial lignite surface mine operation in Louisiana, an operation which involved the development and production of lignite underlying over 30,000 acres in northwest Louisiana. Our attorneys include past and present members of the Louisiana Mineral Law Institute, the state's principal promoter of education and development of mineral law.
The firm's energy litigation lawyers are active in courts in Louisiana as well as in Texas and Arkansas. Representative disputes include claims involving: lease and ownership, exploration and operation, drilling contracts, gas gathering and transportation as well as pipeline construction issues. Our litigators include attorneys recognized by The Best Lawyers in America® and Super Lawyers in Louisiana® in oil and gas law and commercial litigation. They also have an active arbitration practice and include a member certified as an AAA arbitrator on the Special Energy Panel.
