Our real estate attorneys have deep knowledge of the energy industry, and have handled a variety of matters for a broad range of energy clients, including all aspects of real estate acquisition and disposition; financing; stock offerings; asset management; subsurface pipeline and other related easements; ground leases and space leases; mergers and acquisitions; joint ownership agreements and joint ventures; restructuring of ownership interests and royalty disputes. We have also advised energy clients in connection with all forms of title insurance for surface and mineral estates; construction; negotiations with municipalities; permitting and entitlements, including zoning and public hearing issues; transit-oriented development matters; and significant infrastructure and land use due diligence.
Additionally, our attorneys have experience representing regulated public utilities, municipalities, solar project investors and owners, and foreign utility companies across the U.S. in connection with easements for transmission lines and related facilities; acquisitions and dispositions of power generation facilities and adjacent land; and wind turbine and solar projects and facilities. We have also represented large foreign and domestic oil, gas and tank storage companies in connection with the sale and acquisition of pipeline facilities; handled the negotiation of pipeline easements; and dealt with federal, state, and local regulations of pipeline facilities.
In the utility-specific arena, we have broad experience representing utilities in connection with the restructuring of ground leases and subleases related to power generation and transmission facilities, and the construction of solar power facilities located on the land of unrelated third parties. We also have handled various matters for our utility clients involving acquisitions of leasehold and easement rights for the development of solar and wind turbine facilities, main-line relocations, and air rights matters. Our attorneys also work extensively on the complex financing components of renewable energy transactions.
