Jamie Jost joined Beatty & Wozniak, P.C. on January 1, 2010, bringing with her eight years of experience focused primarily on oil and gas issues in the Rocky Mountain region. Jamie’s practice at Beatty & Wozniak focuses on matters relating to exploration, production, and development of oil and gas as well as local, state, and federal permitting and regulatory issues.
Jamie comes to Beatty & Wozniak from Suncor Energy (U.S.A.) Inc. where she served as Corporate Legal Counsel and was primarily responsible for legal issues for Suncor’s pipeline affiliate’s land, title, litigation and permitting matters. Specifically, Jamie worked closely with the business team on the expansion of its existing pipeline system and managed the easement acquisition, permitting, and eminent domain proceedings for the expansion project. She also advised Suncor’s Terminal and Distribution Group, Retail Group, and Human Resources Group on various matters.
Jamie was in private practice in Wyoming, New Mexico and Colorado prior to joining Suncor. During that time, she represented clients in federal and state courts on various energy issues, including oil and gas royalty litigation, subsurface trespass matters, and surface use issues. Jamie has also represented clients in front of the Colorado Oil & Gas Conservation Commission, the Wyoming Oil & Gas Conservation Commission, and the Interior Board of Land Appeals. In addition to advising clients on transactional oil and gas matters, she has advised both landowners and wind energy companies on the construction and development of renewable energy projects in the Rocky Mountain region.
Jamie is excited to return to private practice with Beatty & Wozniak and apply her in-house background to her clients. “I am a true believer in being proactive, rather than reactive. Corporate directors, officers, and counsel are integral pieces of the business puzzle, and their advice and decisions affect their company on a day-to-day basis. Beatty & Wozniak’s ability to provide corporate clients with the right answer, the first time, enables them to keep their business running proactively and efficiently.”
Jamie serves as a trustee for the Rocky Mountain Mineral Law Foundation and has co-authored several oil and gas related articles for the RMMLF. She is a member of the Wyoming Bar Association, Colorado Bar Association Natural Resources and Energy Law Section, and the American Bar Association. She is licensed to practice law in the federal and state courts of Colorado and Wyoming as well as the Tenth Circuit. Jamie received her J.D. from the University of Wyoming in 2002 and her undergraduate degree in Environmental Science from Indiana State University in 1998.
Jamie is a member of the Board of Directors for Ronald McDonald House Charities, Inc. and is an active member of her church. She enjoys spending time with her husband and son, walking her two German Shepherds, reading, hiking, and essentially taking advantage of all Colorado has to offer. |
