Full service Oil & Gas attorney
I have enjoyed a 10+ year client relationship with Bob. He provides outstanding knowledge and capabilities in both lease negotiation/advisory work and in the complex often gray arena of Pennsylvania oil & gas litigation. Exceptionally competent and ethically rigorous.
