Dispute Resolution
Lesa Adair
Practice Leader
Muse gives you the edge in complex settlement negotiations. In matters related to buying or selling, joint ventures contracts, asset valuations, or commercial disputes within the energy sector, we bring a solid reputation as experts. And we get results.
Our incisive analysis, combined with first-hand knowledge of accepted practices, customs, and usage throughout the industry, gives us the ability to distinguish between legitimate barriers to agreement and an opponent's often complex stall tactics. Through mediation we help opposing parties find common ground.
Attorneys turn to us for explanations of complex industry issues, and we have provided expert testimony in the litigation of royalty cost allocations in Alaska, revenue/cost sharing for arbitration joint venture contracts in Europe, bankruptcies, and disputes involving plant processing interruptions. Our expertise has also been tapped in cases ranging from the classification of hydrocarbons to insurance disputes to the economics of rate cases.
