Former Concho GC Heads to Bracewell

Travis Counts, who recently joined Bracewell after serving as senior vice president, general counsel and corporate secretary at Concho Resources, spoke with The Texas Lawbook about his time with Concho and his current practice focus at the firm.

“We built a fantastic company [Concho] and had an amazing group within it,” said Counts, who led a legal department that averaged between 15 and 20 lawyers. “Our group consistently provided high-quality service and built and maintained strong relationships throughout the organization and community. I am proud of our people [with Concho].”

Counts said the Bracewell platform allows him to continue to advise on complex transactions and issues. He says he is keeping a close eye on ESG matters relating to the energy business and the ongoing stockholder v. stakeholder primacy discussions on the governance front.
