“I am part of Liskow’s preeminent energy law practice. I have rendered hundreds of title opinions affecting property from North Louisiana to the coastal parishes for oil and gas, renewable energy, and CCUS projects, and I have handled countless unitization matters before the Office of Conservation.”

Overview

Jeff regularly appears on behalf of clients before the Louisiana Commissioner of Conservation and the State Mineral and Energy Board in Baton Rouge.
