GableGotwals is pleased to announce that 64 lawyers have been recognized in the 2027 Edition of The Best Lawyers in America.
Best Lawyers® in America has named 8 GableGotwals attorneys to the 2024 “Lawyer of the Year” list. Only a single lawyer in each practice area and designated metropolitan area is honored as the “Lawyer of the Year,” making this accolade particularly significant. These lawyers are selected based on particularly impressive voting averages received during the peer-review assessments.
The National Environmental Policy Act is continuing to undergo a period of structural recalibration. A combination of judicial decisions, executive policy direction and proposed legislation reflects a sustained effort to shorten permitting timelines for energy and infrastructure projects while preserving NEPA's core function as a procedural environmental review statute.
GableGotwals is pleased to announce that Travis Lee has joined the Firm’s Tulsa office as an Associate.
The Department of Justice has renamed its Environment and Natural Resources Division (ENRD) the Energy and Natural Resources Division. The rename is not just a branding exercise. It aligns DOJ’s environmental and natural resources litigation shop with the Administration’s broader energy program.
For energy companies, developers, and investors, success in 2026 will depend not only on understanding the rules, but on strategically navigating a rapidly changing regulatory landscape.
Congratulations to the GableGotwals attorneys recently recognized in the 2026 Top Attorneys guide by 405 Magazine. This marks the Firm’s seventh consecutive year to appear in the review.
