Environmental & Citizen Suit Litigation
We know the law, the science, and the technical issues, and we know how to use all three to effectively argue our clients’ cases in court. In a memorable case involving the defense of a groundwater contamination claim, the plaintiff confidently declared that for our client to prevail, we would have to show that water runs uphill. We won. Because we strive to achieve creative outcomes that add value to our clients’ businesses, we realize that litigation sometimes doesn’t make sense. As a result, we are very experienced in leading clients through mediation and other ADR approaches with both private parties and governmental agencies. Together, our lawyers have successfully represented clients in cases involving everything from asbestos to zoning issues in federal, state, and administrative courts from across the nation. Our group’s attorneys have handled such matters in nearly all 50 states.
