Firm Overview

Experienced Louisiana Business Law Firm

The energy, business transaction, and litigation law firm of Hargrove, Smelley & Strickland was founded in Shreveport, Louisiana, to meet the needs of owners and shareholders of companies. Our growth since 1994 allows us to provide experienced legal representation for local, regional and national oil and gas companies with exploration, production, refinery, and transportation operations in Louisiana.

Committed to Excellence

We are founded on the principles of providing exceptional client service and unique solutions in the most sophisticated commercial matters. We have earned national recognition for remaining committed to meeting our clients’ unique transactional and litigation dispute resolution needs, particularly but not exclusively, in situations involving energy law. Our attorneys take leadership roles in state and national legal councils and bar associations and have been listed on the Bar Register of Preeminent Lawyers.

Dedicated to Meeting Your Needs

Our clients include many of the most prominent energy companies operating in the gulf region. We are known for the quality of our work and the quality of the attorneys we recruit to join our firm. Although we offer services in all areas of business law, our clients don’t hire us to solve common problems. Many of our shareholders had been representing our current clients for more than twenty years prior to founding Hargrove, Smelley & Strickland. We believe that building an enduring relationship with you is the most important means of providing exceptional solutions to your complex business transaction, litigation and regulatory needs.

We invite you to contact the business and energy law offices of Hargrove, Smelley & Strickland, to schedule an opportunity to meet with us about your particular business transaction or litigation needs. Our attorneys are recognized nationally for providing experience, expertise, and unique solutions to complex commercial matters.
