LEGAL STATEMENTS

Structure

“Pan-Straits” is the name and brand under which the members of Pan-Straits E&P, LLC (Pan-Straits Legal, LLP, Pan-Straits Resources, LLC and Pan-Straits Services, LLC), and certain entities under common ownership with such members, operate as separate legal entities (collectively, “Pan-Straits entities”). The use of the name “Pan-Straits,” and references to the autonomous but affiliated Pan-Straits entities collectively as “Pan-Straits E&P Group” or “the group,” are for description purposes only and do not imply that the entities are in partnership together, that Pan-Straits Legal, LLP has more than one lawyer (see the additional information below regarding Pan-Straits Legal, LLP's sole lawyer), nor that one Pan-Straits entity accepts responsibility for the acts or omissions of another.

Pan-Straits E&P, LLC and each Pan-Straits entity are limited liability entities formed under the laws of Texas. The personal liability of the members and partners of these entities is limited as provided by such laws.  Any reference on this website or generally to an individual by title (for example, “director,” “partner,” “general counsel” or “lawyer”) is a reference to such individual’s title in the particular Pan-Straits entity in which he/she practices or operates. With respect to references to “a partner” or “partners” of a Pan-Straits entity, the term “partner” denotes either a partner or member of such Pan-Straits entity, or a consultant or other personnel of the entity with equivalent standing or qualifications, and should not be construed as indicating that the partners or members of the entity are carrying on business in a general partnership for the purposes of the law in any jurisdiction in which the entity practices or operates.

Pan-Straits E&P, LLC does not provide services of any type to clients or any other contracting parties. Rather, its purpose is to act as a coordinating entity for its members.

Pan-Straits Legal, LLP is a law firm whose sole lawyer (Brad D'Amico) practices law in particular jurisdictions. Besides Pan-Straits Legal, LLP, no other Pan-Straits entity operates as a law firm or has as its business the practice of law by any of its personnel (whether or not any of its personnel are lawyers), nor does engaging any of these other Pan-Straits entities encompass the rendering of legal services by any the group (including Pan-Straits, Legal, LLP) or otherwise give rise to a lawyer-client relationship. Conversely, an engagement of Pan-Straits Legal, LLP for legal services does not result in a lawyer-client relationship with any other Pan-Straits entity or its personnel (whether or not any of its personnel are lawyers). Accordingly, communications under an engagement between a client and a Pan-Straits entity other than Pan-Straits Legal, LLP are not protected by the lawyer-client relationship, including the lawyer-client privilege or the lawyer work product doctrine, and the professional rules governing the conduct of lawyers, and that relate to the lawyer-client relationship, are not applicable to any personnel of such Pan-Straits entity (whether or not such personnel are lawyers) as they operate or conduct business for the entity under the engagement.

To retain Pan-Straits Legal, LLP, it is not necessary to use the services of any other Pan-Straits entity, or vice versa. Parties that wish to retain a Pan-Straits entity must enter into a written retainer agreement that is signed by an authorized partner or manager of the entity. Except as may be provided by a retainer agreement that is signed by all of the authorized partners or managers of the relevant Pan-Straits entities, clients of one Pan-Straits entity are not clients of any other Pan-Straits entity. The separate but affiliated Pan-Straits entities recognize that their respective clients have a choice in all of their service providers (legal and non-legal) and, where more than one Pan-Straits entity agrees to provide services to clients, wish to ensure that all clients understand that the group is under common ownership.

Disclaimers

Pan-Straits assumes no responsibility for the accuracy or timeliness of any information provided in this website. The materials on this website are for informational purposes only and are not legal advice or substitute for legal counsel. This information is not intended to be an advertisement or solicitation of business (and should not be considered an invitation to a lawyer-client relationship), but it may be considered an advertisement in some jurisdictions. Online readers should not act upon this information for any purpose. Any communication through this website, including via any of the supplied email interfaces, may not be confidential or privileged.

This information is not intended to create, and receipt of it does not constitute, a lawyer-client relationship. For legal advice, you should consult with a lawyer familiar with your circumstances and seek the advice of legal counsel in the appropriate jurisdiction. The hiring of a lawyer is an important decision and should not be based on written descriptions of the experience of the law firm of Pan-Straits Legal, LLP. Every matter is different and similar results may not be obtained in your matter. While Pan-Straits Legal, LLP would like to hear from you, that law firm cannot represent you until it knows that doing so will not create a conflict of interest. Accordingly, in such instances, do not use any of the supplied email interfaces to send Pan-Straits Legal, LLP any confidential information until you speak with a Pan-Straits Legal, LLP lawyer and receive the firm’s authorization to send it that information. No lawyer-client relationship is created unless and until there is a written and fully-executed engagement letter between you and Pan-Straits Legal, LLP.

The representative matters and other experience included in some sections of this website may date from periods before an individual joined Pan-Straits, may not contain full or complete client or entity name references, and may contain colloquial rather than client or entity-specific name references. Any representative matters and other experience included in this website should not imply current or former client status. You should not rely on any information contained in this website, in particular any reference to representative matters and other experience, in making any decision, taking any action or refraining from taking any action. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. Each representation has unique facts and circumstances that may impact results.

Pan-Straits Legal, LLP is unwilling to assume the representation of clients from those states where the materials do not comply with state bar requirements and where the client is generated as a result of that communication. No representation is made or intended that the quality of the legal services to be performed by Pan-Straits Legal, LLP is greater than the quality of legal services performed by other lawyers. In situations in which Pan-Straits Legal, LLP’s fees are contingent or partially contingent on the outcome of the case or transaction, the client is obligated for payment of court costs and expenses regardless of outcome.

To the extent state bar rules require designation of a single lawyer responsible for this website, Pan-Straits Legal, LLP designates Brad D’Amico as such lawyer.
