Vinson & Elkins partner Scott Stiegler named “most highly regarded” Future Leader in Who’s Who Legal 2022 Construction Guide

Based on the recommendations of clients and private practitioners, Who’s Who Legal has named Vinson & Elkins partner Scott Stiegler as one of only six “most highly regarded” Future Leaders across all law firms globally for construction law.

Who’s Who Legal notes Scott as having ”an amazing reputation” and “an excellent practice”, adding that peers herald him as “excellent and tough on the opposing side”.

Scott is a leading international construction disputes lawyer and focuses his practice on complex, multi-jurisdictional construction, engineering, energy and infrastructure projects. He works closely with clients during the life of a project as a trusted strategic advisor who seeks to anticipate and avoid potential disputes and thereafter to achieve the best outcomes for the client.  In the energy sector, Scott has a particular focus on renewable energy project disputes and has played a central role in developing Vinson & Elkins’ growing Energy from Waste practice.  Scott is also an authority on disputes under the FIDIC forms of contract, and particularly with large scale DAB/DAAB proceedings.

Who’s Who Legal selects the foremost practitioners based on their skill and experience assisting domestic and international clients on a range of high-value construction matters, with the Future Leaders category limited to those aged 45 or under given the tremendous amount of first-class work being done by younger lawyers.
