A lateral partner hire in this practice turns on what actually moves with you, far more than on any headline figure.

Leading law firm is seeking a partner to join its Palo Alto office to grow and lead a cross-disciplinary Energy and Environmental practice with strong tax and maritime/construction capabilities. The role will combine transactional and regulatory work across renewable energy, traditional energy projects, and infrastructure delivery.

This is a senior client-facing role: you will originate and manage matters, mentor junior lawyers, and coordinate with multi-office teams on complex, often cross-border matters. The position offers a chance to build a sector-focused practice within an established platform.

Portable book of business of $2M+ (USD)
Established partner-level experience in energy and environmental matters, including tax work related to energy projects
Proven client origination and relationship-management record
Bar admission in the relevant U.S. jurisdiction and ability to work in Palo Alto

Everything is held in confidence and nothing is shared with the firm without your explicit approval.
