Environment: Water Rights

At Gammage & Burnham, we have decades of experience guiding clients through the intricate landscape of water law. Arizona has long been a national leader in water policy, management, and conservation, and our attorneys are integral to shaping the policies and practices that affect how water is accessed and distributed in the state. Water is a finite resource, and the stakes are high when it comes to securing water rights, navigating the complexities of water law, and planning for future water needs. We help our clients understand and secure their access to this essential resource.

Whether you're a developer, a municipality, a rancher, or a water utility, our team has the deep legal knowledge and strategic experience to ensure your water-related issues are handled effectively. From litigation to policy creation, we support our clients in the full spectrum of water law matters, including water rights allocation, environmental regulations, water conservation policies, and more. Our practice group is uniquely positioned in Arizona and the Southwest due to the longstanding contributions of our founding attorney Grady Gammage Jr. As a recognized leader in water policy, Grady has played a pivotal role in shaping Arizona’s water laws over the last several decades, including his leadership on the Central Arizona Project (CAP) Board of Directors and his instrumental work during critical federal litigation.
