Morgan Lewis & Bockius LLP helped to defeat a widely publicized class action concerning nuclear power and represented Anadarko Petroleum Corp. in connection with Deepwater Horizon disaster-related litigation, underscoring the law firm’s ability to counsel across the energy industry and securing a place among Law360's Energy Groups of the Year.
About 110 people work on Morgan Lewis' transactional and regulatory energy team, but about 175 at the firm are involved in some way with energy-related work, David F. Asmus, the firm's energy team co-leader, told Law360. Asmus said that while the big wins Morgan Lewis gets are important, one of the things that make the firm stand out is its intention to represent all clients — big or small — with the same spirit.
