We are adept at handling complex, high-stakes actions involving environmental law and toxic tort regulation and litigation.

From Superfund sites to junkyards to underground storage tanks and asbestos, our lawyers understand the risks these actions pose and the highly regulated environments in which our clients operate. 

Our litigators have successfully represented a range of manufacturing, business and industrial clients – from a Fortune 500 company to a major transportation authority to a fuel oil dealer – in connection with single-plaintiff, multi-party, class action and regulatory matters. 

Just some of our capabilities include: 

  • Air Pollution Enforcement Actions 
  • Environmental Remediation 
  • Freon Exposure 
  • Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Exposure and Violations 
  • Landfills and Hazardous Waste 
  • Minerals Processing 
  • Residential Oil Tanks and Spills 
  • Sewage Treatment and Discharge 
  • Solvent Recovery 
  • Toxic Tort Personal Injury 
  • Underground Storage Tank Contamination 

We employ cutting-edge technology and scientific expertise on behalf of our clients. 

In achieving dismissal of private and regulatory actions, de minimus settlements, cost recoveries and penalty reductions, we employ cutting-edge technological tools and scientific expertise on behalf of our clients. 

Our attorneys also regularly handle environmental and toxic tort insurance matters. Since the 1980s heyday of environmental litigation, our attorneys have successfully litigated critical coverage issues including expected/intended harm, sudden and accidental occurrences, known losses, loss-in-progress, owned property and numerous others. Underlying disputes have centered on chemical plants, refineries, recycling facilities, landfills, junkyards, lagoons, point-source discharges, liquid waste disposal, workplace exposure and many other environmental and toxic tort claims.
