About

Provided by Vorys, Sater, Seymour and Pease LLP

Vorys has a long history in energy development and its regulation in Ohio and the broader Appalachian Basin. We have counseled—and continue to counsel—clients in all types of energy related matters, including conventional and unconventional oil and gas development, renewable energy generation, traditional electric generation, biomass generation and public utility proceedings. That experience, coupled with our ability to call on firm attorneys across the spectrum of law, enables us to advise clients on all types of regulatory and transactional work related to the energy space, from simple leasing and well-field service contracts to sophisticated financing and purchase sale agreements and the permitting of electric generation facilities.

We are also well versed when it comes to helping our energy clients navigate the dispute resolution processes involved when disagreements arise or litigation is necessary to protect our clients’ interests. Our energy attorneys routinely appear before state and federal courts, administrative agencies and arbitration panels on significant oil and gas matters (including class action royalty litigation and lease disputes) and electric and renewable energy matters (including utility rate litigation and utility-scale solar and wind farm permit hearings).
