Energy Law

Nexsen Pruet’s Energy Practice Group has years of familiarity and experience in the energy industry, advising clients in areas of environmental, natural resources, agricultural, governmental law, electric cooperative law (including electric-service rights, eminent domain, pole attachments, easements, service/contact litigation, regulation and counseling), utility law, land sale use and economic development incentives.

Our clients include cooperative organizations, public and private entities, and financial institutions providing capital and services to energy projects/industries. Our clients’ success is founded upon our proven record of experience in energy on both the state, local and federal level. Our depth of knowledge in a wide range of areas provides our clients with across the board skills and practical problem solving solutions.

 Economic development is also a key component within our Energy Practice Group. As a strong advocate for economic development, we work closely with site selectors and our local community partners throughout the southeast to recruit, retain and expand businesses of all sizes. Our commitment to serving our clients earned Nexsen Pruet accolades in Southern Business and Development magazine as one of the “Best Economic Development Service Providers in the South” in its 2009 "Trade Allies" directory.

As an added benefit to our clients, the firm has created a Stimulus Response Team to help guide companies in securing funding through the new economic recovery act stimulus package.
