Industry Knowledge.  Industry Relationships.  Industry Advantage.

What distinguishes Blank Rome’s energy group of over 30 attorneys is our focus on our clients’ regulatory, business, and financial goals and our clear understanding of energy industry dynamics.  We work with our clients, not only to bring established methods to bear on traditional problems, but to achieve unique, competitive advantage in an energy industry that is increasingly subjected to volatile markets and shifting regulatory demands—whether at the federal, RTO, or state level, whether by state utility commissions or environmental regulators.

Our energy group attorneys assist our clients in a broad range of energy areas, including:

• asset transfers and financing
• project development
• real property transfers and development
• land use and real estate tax
• distressed assets and creditors’ rights
• federal energy regulatory matters
• state energy regulatory matters
• environmental compliance
• radiation and Oil & Gas NORM Litigation
• cleantech
• complex tax transactions

Our clients include public electric and gas utilities, independent power producers, private equity firms, project developers, and industrial and commercial electric and gas consumers.  They value us as much for our legal knowledge as for our responsiveness, attention to detail, and our practical approach to regulatory, business, and financial issues that arise during a project.

Experienced Attorneys, Recognized in Their Fields

Beyond hands-on experience, Blank Rome’s energy attorneys are frequently called upon to speak and publish in national broadcast media and to industry groups on hot topics in the energy area, including complex state and local tax planning issues and bankruptcy issues.
