Global law firm White & Case LLP has expanded its Global Project Development and Finance Practice and Global Energy Industry Group with the addition of George Fatula as a partner in Washington, DC.
"Strong US regulatory capabilities are key to our leadership in global energy markets," said White & Case Chair Heather McDevitt. "George's deep expertise strengthens our teams supporting our clients in their most important energy matters."
Fatula advises on the regulatory aspects of energy transactions, including advising developers and operators on issues that arise in pipeline, storage, export and other infrastructure projects. He has extensive experience advising on energy transition projects, including carbon capture, transport and sequestration, as well as advising industry participants on compliance with Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) regulations.
"Investment in energy infrastructure is a priority for many of our clients," said White & Case Co-Head of the Global Energy Industry Group Jay Cuclis. "The addition of George, who has a strong regulatory practice with particular experience across molecule asset classes, builds on prior investments and strengthens our ability to provide market-leading, full-service advice across the energy value chain."
Fatula added: "White & Case has a leading reputation across the energy sector. I look forward to leveraging the Firm's global platform and working with my new colleagues to help clients navigate complexity and take advantage of new energy infrastructure opportunities."
White & Case's energy industry expertise has continued to grow this year, with the addition of Project Development and Finance partners John Donaleski in New York, Patrick Johnson in Houston, and Serra Tar in London; M&A and Sustainability & Responsible Business partner Peter Trimarchi in New York; and M&A partners Ian Goldberg, Alex Miron and Joshua Teahen in Houston.
