CDT Roundup: 18 Deals, 13 Firms, 153 Lawyers, $9.75B

Recent rig count stats suggest a modest rebound in oil and gas. Crude oil prices hovering around $60 per barrel suggest that optimism isn’t just a guess. The question is whether higher commodity prices mean a future for new production, or simply a better return on the O&G already drilled. In the Corporate Deal Tracker Roundup, Caroline Evans looks at the evidence, along with last week’s deals.

  • K/G’s Ryan Gravelle: “We’re a startup; we just sell legal widgets.” - Kastner Gravelle founding partner Ryan Gravelle wasn’t always a tech lawyer, but he says he got there as fast as he could. In this Q&A, the Austin corporate lawyer talks about the climate for startup funding and M&A for tech companies, competitors that have moved to Austin and how a potential recession will affect Austin's tech community.  August 3, 2022Claire Poole
  • Bobbleheads and Smoked Brisket at SCOTUS: Recollections and Advice from Former Supreme Court Law Clerks Who Now Practice in Texas - Washington D.C. may have an allure as the "Nation's Capital," but Texas certainly has demonstrated its own allure: of wide-open spaces, the Dallas Cowboys, longhorns, Willie Nelson, SXSW to name a few. But Texas has also attracted its share of those top-tier lawyers whose résumés denote them as a former clerk to a U.S. Supreme Court justice.

    It's a rarified distinction, and The Lawbook's Tony Mauro interviewed a baker's dozen of them about the path they took to get there, about their experiences inside and about their decision to bring their elite professional skill sets back to Texas. It is safe to say that they remain awed by the experience.
