Armed with this information, we work with our clients to develop a strategy designed to meet specific business goals, while minimizing disruption to ongoing operations.

McGuireWoods' M&A team represents buyers and sellers in mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, joint ventures and other major transactions throughout the Americas, Europe, Asia and the Pacific Rim. The firm's lawyers handle transformative and strategically significant deals for public and private companies in every sector of the economy.

  • Experience with renewable energy, oil & gas, project development or construction contracts is helpful.
  • Candidates should possess strong interpersonal skills and the ability to interact with client, business and legal teams.
  • Must have a strong academic record, excellent writing and oral communication skills, and the ability to work independently with clients and colleagues.
  • Licensed to practice in Texas preferred but not required.
