On the Supreme Court front, Baker Botts L.L.P.’s Houston- and Austin-based team had a strong showing in the Texas Supreme Court over the past year. The group also regularly appears before SCOTUS, as well as lower appellate courts across the country. Arguably best known for its prominence in oil and gas-related work, the team’s expertise extends far beyond energy to encompass IP, healthcare, environment and employment-related matters, among others. Macey Reasoner Stokes heads the appellate section and successfully represented CenterPoint Energy Resources Corp before the Texas Supreme Court in a case reversing a multimillion-dollar verdict against it concerning personal injuries arising from a gas explosion. Aaron Streett, a former US Supreme Court clerk, chairs the Supreme Court and constitutional law practice; he is recognized for his record before the Fifth Circuit and DC Circuit, where he has argued 35 times across both circuits.
