    Why talk to Ed Hossain?

    Connor Kilgallen joined Vinson & Elkins LLP's Austin office in the Energy group.

    Ed was recommended to me by a friend and assisted me with a lateral move. He is a pleasure to work with. He has all the qualities needed -- responsiveness, knowledge of the market, and the required experience to help inform approach. In addition I found he was really good at remembering details about my sensitivities and concerns. Maybe he is just great at taking notes, but it really gave me confidence in his guidance. I really recommend working with Ed.
