About

Provided by Perkins Coie LLP

With more than 100 environment and natural resources attorneys in offices across the United States, our attorneys provide comprehensive counsel to clients navigating the complex statutory and regulatory framework of environmental and natural resource law. We advise, we litigate, and we help shape environmental policy at the federal, state, and local levels. Our team has the experience, depth and breadth to address any environmental or natural resource issue confronting our clients, serving a wide range of industries.

Our California team is a recognized market leader with a deep bench of experienced attorneys who are leaders in the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), water and wildlife protection, air quality regulation, and environmental contamination, torts, and clean-up cost recovery. Unlike many environmental practice groups, the California Environment practice are equally adept at litigation and counselling. Clients seek us out to secure their most challenging permits, to defend their highest-stakes environmental litigation, and to prevent such litigation from ever being filed.
Perkins Coie has significant experience throughout the country handling environmental considerations in acquisitions, sales and refinancing, including managing complex diligence reviews, assessing and allocating risk, negotiating transactional documentation and handling post-closing compliance and site remediation issues.
