Allison K. Perry has joined Bracewell’s tax department as a partner in the Houston office. This move marks a return to Bracewell for Perry after serving at Shell in-house as the energy giant’s US lead employment tax counsel.
When asked why she returned, Perry stressed that the firm’s reputation factored high in her decision. “Bracewell’s reputation in energy tax strategy and employee benefits and executive compensation matters made it a perfect fit for my practice,” Perry told The Texas Lawbook.
“I also truly enjoyed my time previously at Bracewell. It was like a homecoming of sorts. The opportunity to lead the ERISA practice while returning to a place where I was familiar with its culture, people and clients made the timing right for me to make the move.”
