Guy is the maritime team leader at Adams and Reese in New Orleans.
Guy litigates matters stemming from marine construction, maritime, marine and energy insurance and all aspects of worldwide oil and gas operations. With a global focus, he handles a great deal of work connected to oil and gas production centers, including the Gulf of Mexico, West Africa and Europe. His representation encompasses domestic and international marine construction companies, drilling contractors, offshore service vessel owners, ship owners, shipyards and rig repair facilities, naval architects, marine engineers and designers, as well as their insurers on coverage questions, defense of claims and subrogation.
Guy started his career in London working for a large firm representing clients in the insurance market there, making him one of the few attorneys who are licensed to practice in Texas, Louisiana and England. He is familiar with how the London insurance market and the marine and energy companies insured there operate. His extensive international maritime litigation experience qualifies him to marshal and manage responses to disasters and accidents and then to adeptly deal with government entities, insurers, other parties, and the resulting legal actions in their aftermaths.
Guy received his LL.M. in Admiralty Law from Tulane University School of Law. He was called to the Bar of England and Wales by Gray’s Inn after attending Inns of Court School of Law in London and receiving a Diploma in Law from The City University in London. He received a bachelor’s and master’s degree in modern history from Magdalen College, University of Oxford.
