An appointment at partner level of this kind turns on the portability of the practice, not on a headline number.

Leading international law firm seeks a lateral partner to grow and lead its Energy & Environmental practice in Silicon Valley. The role will focus on renewable energy, broader energy matters and regulatory work, with opportunities to advise sponsors, investors and corporate clients on complex transactions and regulatory issues.

Ideal candidates will have an established client portfolio, experience originating and leading mandates, and an interest in building a team. Candidates with a background in private equity-linked energy transactions or regulatory-focused energy work are particularly welcome.

Portable book of business of $6$“8M+ (USD)
Established client relationships in energy and renewables, with demonstrable origination record
Experience advising on regulatory and transactional matters in the energy or environmental sector
Proven team leadership and business development capability

Where the match is not obvious from the description, it is still worth a conversation — partner briefs move with the candidate.
