The firm has the seventh-highest concentration of energy lawyers with 72 percent of its lawyers practicing in energy law. AZA has represented some of the nation’s largest energy and oil and gas companies, including Plains All American Pipeline, National Oilwell Varco, Noble Energy Inc. and Apache Corp. “It is gratifying to see our deep-benched boutique listed among so many longtime, big-name Houston energy firms.

Mr. Zavitsanos was named one of the top 100 leaders in the Houston Business Journal’s competitive Houston Who’s Who in Energy rankings in 2013.
