Oil Patch Bits: Stoel Rives receive high marks from Chambers USA

Editor’s note: All of these news items — some in expanded form — will appear in the next Arctic Oil & Gas Directory, a full color magazine that serves as a marketing tool for Petroleum News’ contracted advertisers. The next edition will be released in September.

Stoel Rives, a U.S. business law firm, said June 20 that James E. Torgerson and Joseph J. Perkins Jr. of the firm’s Anchorage office have been selected as leading U.S. lawyers by independent legal research team Chambers and Partners. The Anchorage office also received recognition as being among the best in Alaska in the area of general commercial litigation.

Torgerson, managing partner of the Anchorage office, is a trial attorney whose clients describe him as “an expert litigator.” In their research, Chambers found Torgerson “is widely credited with building the Stoel Rives team into a major player in the Alaska litigation market.”

Perkins represents a number of major clients in various oil and gas and natural resources matters, and sources call him “one of the best in the field; he has a keen mind and understands the nuances of the industry.”

Nationally, the firm was rated among the best U.S. law firms in the Projects: Renewables & Alternative Energy and Food & Beverage: Alcohol categories, noting its recognition as “one of the leading project development firms in the field” and its “solid reputation in the wine industry.” Chambers also nominated Stoel Rives for the prestigious Chambers USA Award for Excellence in the Energy Projects: Power Including Renewables category.
