Notable for its breadth of advice across the coal, gas and oil sectors, Jones Day is well-established within energy regulation, often advising subsidiaries of large companies due to cross-border matters arising from the firm’s international network. Johannes Willheim, the team leader, splits his time between Frankfurt and Paris and is prominent in the team’s disputes, specifically price adjustment disputes for energy supplies. With the addition of Michiel Huizinga from A&O Shearman in January 2025, the group continues to strengthen its involvement in energy infrastructure as a result of a history of advising financial investors on complex private equity transactions.
