Exclusive – Legal & Financial Advisers Feast on Bankruptcy Fees from the Oil Patch

During the past 30 months, more than 240 companies in the energy sector – a majority of them based in Texas – have declared bankruptcy. The Texas Lawbook conducted an extensive examination of the lawyers and firms working on the distress in the oil patch.

In part one of a series of articles, The Lawbook found that energy companies in bankruptcy have paid their legal and financial advisers – a great majority of them based in New York and Chicago – more than $1.4 billion in fees and expenses during the past two and one half years and hundreds of millions of dollars more to be paid during the next few months. Three law firms have been paid a combined $354 million for their representation of distressed energy companies during the past two and a half years.

  • My Five Favorite Books: Melanie Koltermann (General Counsel at Five Star Management) - My reading habits have changed dramatically over the years. Where I once lingered over actual hard copy books late at night, these days I “read” mostly on the move. I now listen to my books, filling the hours I spend driving to/from work and after dropping of the kids for their many events. What might once have felt like idle time has become some of my most rewarding reading time, and I’ve grown to love how stories accompany me in the car. Much like my taste in music, my reading choices are eclectic and all over the place. I rarely stick to one genre or style, preferring instead to explore whatever captures my curiosity at the moment.
