Snippets from the Episode

• "We've seen our transactional practice, our litigation practice, grow in the last year. So that's been very exciting to be able to add sort of that additional value to our clients." -Brad Gibbs
• One of the things I'd love to see the administration do is get behind more infrastructure buildouts. Yeah, solar projects are sexy and great, but you got to be able to get that energy to the grid in an efficient, and effective manner." - Brent Broussard
• "I think it's a good time to be an oil and gas firm and a good time to be a broker. I think we all just want to make hay while the sun's shining." - Brad Gibbs
