Greenberg Traurig Adds Energy Attorney from Morrison & Foerster
WASHINGTON, D.C. -- February 28, 2005 -- Greenberg Traurig LLP announced
today that it has added Kenneth M. Minesinger, from Morrison & Foerster
LLP, as a shareholder in its Washington, D.C. office. Minesinger will join
Greenberg Traurig’s energy practice group, furthering the growth of the
Washington, D.C. office, which has recently seen the addition of four new
shareholders and a Director of Federal Marketing.
“We are just delighted that Ken has chosen to bring his impressive credentials
and energy practice to Greenberg Traurig,” said
Joe Reeder, Managing Shareholder
of the Mid-Atlantic region. “No one understands the energy landscape better
than Ken. His experience practicing before the FERC will be a great benefit
to our existing energy practice. He also is a consummate team player, and
we are very fortunate indeed to have him on our team.”
Minesinger focuses his practice on energy regulatory proceedings before
the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and on energy-related antitrust
and litigation matters. His diverse energy background includes the representation
of energy clients in complex ratemaking, restructuring, licensing and merger
proceedings, as well as litigation and investigations concerning alleged
market manipulation.
Minesinger is currently counseling large energy companies, including
El Paso Corporation, El Paso Natural Gas Company, Colorado Interstate Gas
Company, and other clients, on numerous FERC regulatory and litigation matters.
His representations include rate case litigation, marketing affiliate and
market behavior code of conduct compliance, FERC certificate proceedings,
appellate litigation defending FERC orders that successfully resolved significant
litigation for his clients, antitrust compliance and merger/acquisition
matters, and antitrust litigation defending against charges of abuse of
monopoly power.
Minesinger’s arrival also adds to the firm’s expanding and diversified
energy law and policy practice in Washington, D.C. and nationwide. The firm
represents virtually all types of participants in today's rapidly changing
