She has assisted clients in negotiating key agreements for project development and operations, acquiring various permits and government approvals, including those from the Alaska Department of Natural Resources, the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation, and the Alaska Oil & Gas Conservation Commission, and closing financing transactions.

Whether it involves navigating complex regulatory schemes or creating a path forward where one did not exist before, Tina is known for her ability to help clients solve complex problems and get things done.

In its annual survey of America’s most highly regarded attorneys, Chambers and Partners has reported that clients consider Tina to be “excellent, very savvy” and a “great lawyer.” Her clients have also praised her ability to “spot the traps and pitfalls, and … advise on how to make the transaction straightforward.”
