Haynes and Boone LLP has announced the opening of a Denver office and the addition of two new partners, well-known midstream and pipeline practitioner Anne Weber and Alan Talesnick, who focuses his practice on securities and corporate matters.
They will be joined by two Houston-based Haynes and Boone lawyers with significant Denver contacts -- Partner Patrick L. Hughes and Counsel Robert Thibault -- with the ultimate goal of establishing a substantial presence to serve the Denver business community, said firm managing partner Tim Powers.
Weber established the Weber Law Firm LLC in 2003 and, serving as its managing attorney, has focused her practice on midstream sector work, drafting and advising on contract structures and key terms for transactions, commercial gas, oil and natural gas liquids purchase, gathering and transportation, compression, processing and fractionation agreements for pipeline and producer / shipper clients.
Talesnick counsels clients on securities law matters, including private and public offerings, public disclosure, SEC reporting and compliance, corporate governance, mergers and acquisitions, and business transactions.
Hughes, a restructuring lawyer with experience in corporate reorganizations in bankruptcy and business litigation, will serve as the new office's administrative partner.
Thibault, splitting his time between the Houston and Denver offices, will continue to represent clients in both the Gulf Coast and Rocky Mountain Regions in energy law and commercial litigation matters, including domestic and international oil and gas transactions, as well as oil and gas and administrative agency litigation.
According to Houston partner Buddy Clark, leader of the firm's 75-lawyer energy practice, the Denver market entry further expands the footprint and capabilities of the firm's national energy practice. With it, Haynes and Boone becomes one of only a handful of Texas-based law firms to establish a solid base of operations in Denver as the center of the Rocky Mountain corridor of energy development.
Haynes and Boone LLP is an international corporate law firm with offices in Texas, New York, California, Washington, D.C., Shanghai and Mexico City, providing a full spectrum of legal services.
