At Beatty & Wozniak, we focus on energy and natural resources law.

We’ve made it a priority in our law practice to understand all segments of the conventional and emerging energy industries, including the regulatory and political contexts that companies within these industries operate.  When you walk into our office, you won’t have to educate us about the difference between a drill bit and a wind turbine.  We can start discussing your problem and potential solutions right away. 

Our team handles a wide variety of energy litigation, title work, environmental and regulatory issues and corporate transactions.  We often meet attorneys who are still learning the vocabulary of our industry while we are moving forward on the issue at hand.  Right out of the gate, our knowledge and energy experience gives us a key advantage.

We know you may have to work with non-industry people or face opponents, judges, juries and county commissioners who are not familiar with the energy business and may even have developed biases from a lack of understanding. We can help them see your side from an informed perspective.

At Beatty & Wozniak, we think and speak energy 24 hours a day. Just like our clients.
