Retail customers in Texas enjoy a strong, competitive electric market, and that competition gives them the bargaining power to insist on fair and reasonable terms in retail electric contracts. Attorneys can help ensure their clients obtain those terms.

Attorneys advising large commercial and industrial customers should therefore be familiar with the typical provisions of such contracts and the issues they present.
