K&L Gates has added Anthony F. Newton as a partner to its energy practice in Houston. Newton, who leaves Haynes and Boone, is the fourth partner to join the Houston office this month.
The 1999 graduate of the University of Houston Law Center focuses his practice on energy and infrastructure projects and transactions. He has represented clients in the oil and gas exploration and production, oilfield services, and storage sectors of the energy industry on a variety of corporate, finance, private equity, and tax matters.
Recently, Newton has been involved in advising a private oil and gas drilling company in its $58.5 million sale to a publicly-held Canadian energy company; a private oil and gas software company in an international FCPA audit and $65 million sale to a publicly-held U.S. energy company; a U.S. subsidiary of a publicly-held Danish company in connection with the $768 million acquisition of a Swedish manufacturing company; and a real property development company in a $440 million three-tiered refinancing.
Newton is the Houston office’s sixth partner since its opening in February.
