Steptoe & Johnson PLLC announced that Matthew London has rejoined the firm’s Energy and Natural Resources Department as of counsel in the Morgantown office, where he will focus on energy transactions, contracts and title matters.
“Matt’s return brings a valuable combination of in-house insight and transactional experience to our energy team,” said Christopher L. Slaughter, CEO of Steptoe & Johnson. “His time within a leading energy company gives him a strong understanding of how legal strategy impacts business operations and positions him to guide our clients through complex deals.”
London advises energy clients on acquisitions and divestitures, due diligence, contract negotiation and compliance, and mineral title issues. He returns to Steptoe & Johnson after serving as senior attorney for corporate and securities at EQT Corporation, where he facilitated securities filings to comply with SEC and NYSE regulations, managed subsidiaries and helped develop and implement domestic and international know-your-counterparty processes to mitigate risk.
London earned his law degree from New England Law Boston, his Master of Fine Arts from West Virginia University and his bachelor’s degree from Waynesburg University.
