Covering Corporate Law Depart­ments and in-house attorneys for Texas Lawyer and other ALM publications, reporter Kristen Rasmussen profiles Danielle Hunter, executive vice president, general counsel, chief risk & compliance officer and corporate secretary at C&J Energy Services.

Houston-based C&J Energy Services provides well construction, well completion, well support and other complementary oil field services to oil and gas exploration and production companies in North America. The company operates in all active onshore oil- and natural gas-producing regions of the continental United States and Western Canada.

Founded in 1997, C&J in 2015 combined with the completion and production services business, Nabors Industries Ltd. Last July, the company filed for Chapter 11 relief and emerged from bankruptcy in January with a financial restructuring that eliminated about $1.4 billion of debt and more than $80 million of annual interest expense.
