Vinson & Elkins announced today that Louise Fischel-Bock has rejoined the firm as counsel in the corporate team in London.
Fischel-Bock began her legal career at Vinson & Elkins, where she trained and practiced as an associate. She advises clients on the development, financing, and structuring of complex energy and infrastructure projects, with a particular focus on transactions supporting the energy transition. Her experience spans all aspects of energy transition projects, including renewable energy, sustainable aviation fuel, low-carbon hydrogen, clean ammonia, carbon capture, and other emerging technologies, as well as conventional power and oil and gas.
“Louise returning to the firm is a testament to the work we are doing for clients,” said Ben Higson, Head of Vinson & Elkins’ London Transactions Practice. “She is a fantastic lawyer with deep sector knowledge and a clear passion for energy and infrastructure. Her return strengthens our corporate offering at a time of continued growth and opportunity.”
“Returning to Vinson & Elkins at such a pivotal time for the energy and infrastructure sectors is an exciting opportunity,” Fischel-Bock said. “Speaking from experience, the firm’s deep commitment to the energy transition, combined with its collaborative culture and global platform, makes it the best place to continue building my practice. I look forward to working with the team to support clients on their most ambitious and innovative projects.”
Fischel-Bock returns to the firm after serving as counsel in the London office of Akin Gump. Her arrival follows the recent additions of partners Chris Taufatofua and Kilian de Cintré, further strengthening the firm’s expanded corporate and finance capabilities in London.
Fischel-Bock holds an LL.M. from the University of California, Berkeley, School of Law, an LPC and GDL from the University of Law, London, and a B.A. from Boston College.
