Clinton Butler is a Shareholder who works in both the San Antonio and Karnes City Offices and also serves as the Chair of Langley & Banack, Inc.’s Oil, Gas & Energy practice group. Clinton’s oil and gas practices primarily center around representing landowners in transaction and litigation matters. In addition to his litigation practice, he has negotiated numerous transactions on behalf of his landowner clients related to the development of the Eagle Ford and Permian Shale mineral plays including, but not limited to, oil and gas leases; top leases; pipeline, road, and surface use easements; and water use agreements. While most of Clinton’s clients are individual landowners located in South Texas, he also represents a variety of large and small businesses in both litigation and transactional matters involving the development of the Eagle Ford and Permian Shale mineral plays.
In addition to his busy oil and gas practice, Clinton is very active in commercial, construction, and fiduciary based litigation. His client base ranges from large companies such as Buc-ee’s, Ltd., Southstar Bank, and South Texas Electric Cooperative to small business owners and individuals. While Clinton aggressively fights for his clients, he firmly believes that zealous advocacy must also be matched with an ethical and good natured attitude in order to achieve the best results possible for his clients.

We are excited to announce that our digital series featuring our bankruptcy attorneys sharing their experience and knowledge in both business and personal bankruptcy begins tomorrow with episode 1 of our podcasts.
Episode 5's special guest is Richard Butler. Richard has been involved in several large executive rights cases, including one that is considered by many to be in the Top Five of executive rights cases in the State of Texas, Texas Outfitters.
Clinton Butler is joined by our partner in the Karnes City office, Elizabeth Kopecki. Episode 2 of our five-part series on oil & gas law in Texas takes a deeper dive into the process by which minerals are conveyed or reserved through deeds, assignments, wills, and other conveyance instruments. The episode will then shift to address some of the many issues that can arise between parties to those conveyance instruments and how best to deal with these issues at the front end or, if you have to, on the back end.
