Rob Ellis

As assistant general counsel of Southwestern Energy — and before that as Southwestern’s outside counsel — Rob Ellis has notched big victories on both sides of the aisle for the Spring, Texas, natural gas company.

None bigger than last October when Ellis and his team of outside lawyers with Yetter Coleman were plaintiffs in a three-week trial in Monroe County, Ohio, against a chemical company whose operations allegedly trespassed and interfered with the underground drilling operations of a Southwestern Energy subsidiary, Triad.
