Practices

Environmental Law

Our litigators team with Mintz Levin’s skilled group of environmental lawyers to provide clients with unparalleled expertise in dealing with environmental disputes. Environmental litigation capability of this breadth and depth is rarely found in a single law firm. Our integrated efforts ensure a thorough understanding of the law and procedure, as well as  the policies of government agencies that enforce the law.

This approach also allows us to transition effectively from negotiation to litigation when that becomes necessary.  The majority of our environmental litigation is driven by federal Superfund and state cleanup laws. We represent clients in enforcement actions by environmental agencies, and in both prosecuting and defending lawsuits against parties who may have been responsible for contaminating a site.
