CMS continues to be a dominant force in the Aberdeen energy market, utilising its ‘high-quality individual lawyers and incredible coverage across sector’ to handle an array of client instructions. The firm caters to a wide range of clients, including multinational energy corporations and leading oil and gas exploration companies, producers, and service providers looking to optimise portfolios through high-value acquisitions. Furthermore, the group assists clients in the renewables sector with restructurings, joint ventures, acquisitions and disposals, and equity investments in energy asset portfolios, particularly wind, battery storage, and hydrogen projects. Frank Fowlie helms the Aberdeen practice and is noted as a ’really good corporate lawyer with a no nonsense approach and solution focused advice’, particularly in relation to M&A and corporate restructurings. Craig Wilson also comes recommended for his wide-spanning expertise in the renewables and oil and gas space.
