Environment: Litigation

The Phelps environmental team offers a full service, multi-faceted approach to environmental matters, drawing on scientific training and substantial transactional, regulatory and litigation experience to deliver efficient solutions for our clients. 

Phelps’ environmental practice regularly handles the full array of environmental issues faced by businesses. We work with colleagues across practice groups and industries and draw on our relationships with experts, consultants and regulators. We are adept at assisting with the environmental components of major transactions, have extensive regulatory experience and a robust environmental litigation practice. Crucially, our environmental attorneys understand that these areas of expertise are interrelated – our litigation experience informs our analysis of due diligence and risk allocation in transactions; our regulatory experience is vital to our defense of clients in litigation, whether from a private party or a government agency. This mindset and our depth of knowledge allows our team to deliver comprehensive and efficient service to businesses.
