Vinson & Elkins Named a Law360 "Energy Group of the Year" for 14th Time

Law360 has selected Vinson & Elkins a 2024 Energy Group of the year, citing the billions of dollars in energy transactions handled by the firm and the courtroom wins secured for energy clients.
Below is an excerpt of Law360’s article, profiling Vinson & Elkins’ sustained track record of success representing energy companies in cutting-edge transaction and big-ticket disputes:
Danielle Patterson, an energy and infrastructure partner and a co-leader of the Houston-headquartered firm’s corporate practice group, said the breadth of the deals the firm worked on over the past year illustrates its vast energy sector experience.
The deals spanned the full range of transaction types, project development stages and asset classes, she said, and involved everything from traditional oil and gas to offshore wind, solar, carbon capture, renewable fuels and clean ammonia.
“That’s what we do at V&E all day, every day,” Patterson said. “If we find something we feel like we’re not covering, we figure out how to cover it.”
The firm, also recognized as an Energy Group of the Year for 2023, 2022 and 2021, and each year from 2010 to 2019, said it advised on more than a dozen merger and acquisition transactions exceeding $1 billion in the oil and gas sector last year, and handled more than 150 traditional energy matters overall with a combined deal value of more than $140 billion.
