About

Provided by Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton

The forces that threaten the environment are coming into sharper focus, with many businesses embracing innovation that mitigates damage and represents tremendous commercial opportunity and still others pushing to ease burdensome environmental restrictions. Along with long-term business imperatives, companies must also contend with regulatory regimes tasked with conflicting mandates and pursuing vastly different agendas. Kilpatrick Townsend’s attorneys support clients in meeting health, safety, and environmental challenges throughout the United States and around the world. We have experience in almost every state in the nation and have worked on projects in Latin America, Europe, Asia, and the Middle East.
