June 27, 2022

Clark Hill announced today that Steve Recchia has joined the firm as Senior Counsel in its Environment, Energy & Natural Resources practice group.

Joining Clark Hill’s San Diego office, Recchia will initially focus his practice on the acquisition and sale of renewable energy projects as well as transactions related to development and asset management with an emphasis on solar, wind, and energy storage projects.

“We’re very excited to have Steve join our renewable energy practice. His experience in the private sector will bring a great perspective to our team,” said EENR Business Unit Director Rod Williamson.

Over the past 14 years, Recchia has represented developers, owners and operators, investors, and equipment manufacturers (OEMs) in drafting and negotiating various project documents, including engineering, procurement and construction (EPC), equipment supply agreements, power purchase agreements (PPAs), partnership-joint ventures, membership interest purchase agreements (MIPA), and asset management-operation and maintenance agreements.

“Joining Clark Hill’s EENR practice is a tremendous opportunity for the next stage of my career,” Recchia said. “I look forward to meeting with the group and beginning the work of providing efficient solutions to renewable energy clients.”

Prior to joining Clark Hill, Recchia was general counsel for renewable energy companies. He earned his law degree from UC Berkeley School of Law.

Critical Risk Mitigation Provisions for Design Contracts — Part 1: Waiver of Consequential Damages

An essential element of architect and engineer contracts with their clients is the treatment of risk sharing between the parties. Design professionals who are typically simply providing services for a fee, and who are not investors who will share in the profits of a successful project, can ill-afford to expose themselves to unlimited liability for negligent errors and omissions in the performance of their services. Architects and engineers would argue that it is fundamentally unfair to expose them to unlimited downside risk when they do not directly participate in the upside profit potential of the projects they design. Owners and developers would counter that this is why design professionals carry professional liability insurance. But even simple design errors can lead to liability that is many times greater than the amount of such insurance.
