Baker Botts Ranked as a Top M&A Legal Adviser for Oil Sector

Baker Botts LLP was ranked the No. 1 legal adviser for global oil and gas M&A deals by value through the first three quarters of 2021 based on a recent GlobalData report.

Similarly, Vinson & Elkins was ranked by GlobalData as the top legal adviser for global oil and gas M&A deals in terms of volume during the same period.

Baker Botts noted in an Oct. 28 release it had increased its rankings even further this year across the entire energy spectrum, “solidifying its leadership in a broad range of subsectors that include oil and gas, LNG, power and renewables.” As a result, the international law firm, headquartered in Houston, advised on several of the most significant M&A transactions in the oil and gas industry this year alone.
