Toxic Torts Environmental LawReturn to Practice Areas Main Page

Our practice encompasses the following areas:

Toxic and Mass Tort Litigation:

We represent numerous manufacturers and suppliers in litigation involving third-party claims for personal injury, medical monitoring and property damage. 

Private and Governmental Cost-Recovery Litigation:

We represent clients as PRPs in government-driven Superfund litigation, and as both plaintiffs and defendants in private cost-recovery cleanup actions.

Regulatory and Compliance Matters:

We counsel clients on a wide variety of regulatory and compliance matters that arise in both transactional settings and in day-today business operations.

We have had the privilege of litigating — and trying to verdict — some of the most prominent toxic tort and environmental cases over the past thirty years.  We consider ourselves trial lawyers, not just litigators. For example, we tried  — and won — one of the first medical monitoring trials. We also tried — and won — one of the first stigma property damages trials.  We have successfully fought class certification in toxic and mass tort litigation for years.

Our transactional lawyers have counseled numerous commercial and financial institution clients on environmental matters that affect them, including the sale, purchase, lease, financing and foreclosure of real estate having environmental problems.  By education, training and experience, we specialize as well.  Some of our attorneys have held high environmental administrative positions in government and are skilled in “getting things done” effectively when dealing with administrative and regulatory matters.  Our attorneys and support staff have backgrounds in chemistry, toxicology, engineering and medicine. 

The diverse services we provide to our clients share a common commitment to excellence in the quality of representation.  We provide effective representation that is always cost-efficient and closely tailored to our clients’ goals and objectives.
