Holme Roberts & Owen Llp (Now Bryan Cave)
I have an extensive background in environmental litigation matters. My cases included actions arising under state and federal superfund (CERCLA) laws, natural resource damages, the Clean Water Act (CWA), toxic mold, Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), and underground storage tank law, toxic tort and class action litigation, and defense of citizen suit actions. I worked with clients to manage environmental risks associated with acquiring or investing in environmentally-impaired properties, including Brownfields development and investment, insurance options, and due diligence review. I also advised clients on permitting, reporting, enforcement actions, and other environmental compliance issues relating to a variety of state and federal requirements, such as underground and aboveground storage tank compliance, Emergency Planning and Community Right to Know Act (EPCRA) compliance and reporting, CERCLA, CWA, RCRA, NEPA, TSCA, and FIFRA issues. I also advised clients on general litigation matters, including contract issues, construction defect cases, and products liability.
