We differ from many law firms because we believe that it is in a company’s best interest 1) to work proactively to eliminate environmental issues before government inspections, government enforcement, and litigation and 2) to have an established long-term relationship with an attorney who effectively serves as an environmental in-house counsel.
Companies are facing an ever increasing web of environmental regulation from all levels of government.
We help companies with government inspections and enforcement, regulatory compliance and audits, permits, and litigation, among other issues.
