Energy Industry Litigation & Investigations
With our reputation as a trial lawyers’ firm serving as our foundation, we advocate for a variety of power producers, oil and gas companies, and oilfield services providers in high-stakes litigation throughout U.S. district and appellate courts. We also handle sensitive investigations, contentious regulatory and enforcement issues, and arbitration. Our bench is stacked with innovative legal and commercial problem solvers, many of whom came to Winston from in-house positions, amplifying their appreciation for C-suite complexities. By combining our knowledge of the energy industry with first-rate trial skills, and the experience our practitioners have gained from learning our clients’ businesses, we are positioned to obtain the best result for our clients efficiently—whether in the courtroom or a negotiated solution.
Practice Area
Commercial Litigation & Disputes
Winston represents clients in virtually every type of dispute that could arise from operating a business. While our primary objective is to protect our clients from the need to engage in litigation and enter the courtroom, we take pride in our heavyweight litigation experience and the knowledge that corporate America has repeatedly retained us not just for “bet-the-company” trials, but for “bet-the-industry” cases as well. Our commercial litigators’ track record of success earned the team a national Tier 1 ranking in Best Law Firms® 2025. Our practice is anchored by seasoned litigators, many of whom have been recognized by in-house counsel and their peers as top practitioners in their fields.
Practice Area
Our attorneys have extensive experience counseling U.S. and multinational public companies across a range of industries in all aspects of corporate governance, securities, and compliance matters. We advise public companies, boards of directors and their committees, and senior executives on the corporate governance and compliance matters that public companies and their leadership confront—from board structuring and succession planning to shareholder activism and SEC regulation. Drawing on our experience as seasoned counselors, we keep clients abreast of evolving trends and best practices to proactively manage any governance or compliance issues. We have assembled one of the most experienced teams of any law firm in the country that’s counseling public companies.

What Is the Domestic Industry Requirement?
The domestic industry requirement for Section 337 investigations at the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) mandates that a complainant asserting patent infringement at the ITC, or complainant’s licensee, has made in the United States significant investments in plant and equipment, significant investments in labor or capital, or substantial investments in engineering, research and development, or licensing. The investments must further be directed to articles that practice a valid claim of the asserted patent. The investment component of the requirement is referred to as the “economic prong,” while the requirement that the article practices the asserted patent is referred to as the “technical prong.” The domestic industry requirement is codified in 19 U.S.C. § 1337(a)(2)-(3).
