Tip of the Hat to Exxon Mobil’s Bill Buck

Exxon Mobil Upstream GC William Buck is retiring from the world’s largest oil and gas operation after 36 years. He is being replaced by Chip Casey, who is Exxon Mobil’s chief attorney over its production division. Buck’s commitment to the legal profession and public service is unparalleled. EOG Resources GC Michael P. Donaldson says Buck “was on the front lines of providing access to justice for our veterans and other in need of legal assistance.”

“For some lawyers, pro bono is something they have to support as part of their jobs. For Bill, the commitment to pro bono is genuine and deep,” says LyondellBasell CLO Jeffrey Kaplan. The Texas Lawbook honors Bill Buck for a tremendous legal career.

Led by Ivett Hughes in Houston, a regional team of lawyers and staff partnered with Houston Volunteer Lawyers to represent four clients — roughly one pro bono case per five lawyers.
