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.

  • Plains All American GC Richard McGee — Pole Vaulting into a Lifetime of Achievements - In the world of oil and gas, Richard McGee has seen it all — and he’s done most of it. As a corporate transactional lawyer for Vinson & Elkins, he represented some of the biggest players in the oil patch, including Enron. In 2001, he joined Duke Energy, first as a lawyer and then as president of its international operations. Houston-based Plains All American hired McGee in 2009 and became its general counsel in 2012. Along the way, he led or was heavily involved in more than 100 M&A transactions totaling in the tens of billions of dollars. This month, he is working to close the $3.8 billion sale of Plains’ natural gas liquids business to Canadian-based Keyera.
