Experience

We excel in providing strategic counsel to companies, lenders, and individuals by guiding them through compliance requirements, risk mitigation, and sustainable business practices. Our group combines experience in environmental corporate, compliance, real estate, and litigation matters across numerous state and national borders. We routinely assist clients in myriad business sectors, including manufacturing, transportation, financial services, retail, real estate, and more.

Among other things, we offer tailored legal advice on environmental due diligence, permitting, and compliance audits. Our group has extensive experience in matters touching on clean air, hazardous and solid waste, contaminated sites, land use, and water quality. We also navigate the complex world of OSHA compliance as well as newly developing regulations concerning environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues and the emission and cleanup of emerging contaminants such as “PFAS.” If the need arises, we also provide dispute services for litigation or defense of an enforcement action. Our partners routinely handle environmental litigation matters, representing clients in administrative hearings, arbitration, civil litigation, and appeals. And we don’t just litigate on paper – we try cases.
