Our lawyers respond to demanding environmental situations
Our experience with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and other regulators is second to none — at the agency level or in litigation—with strategies that protect financial interests and business reputations.
Shumaker has been involved in virtually every key U.S. EPA rulemaking and enforcement initiative since the 1970s. We understand how these environmental regulatory programs and enforcement strategies impact our clients' businesses—and what can be done to mitigate risks and impacts.
We represent clients in complex regulatory and litigation matters—before the EPA, state environmental agencies, federal and state courts, and the Supreme Court of the United States. Recognizing that our clients' reputations are paramount, we foster good relationships between our clients and the agencies that regulate them. While we aim to avoid disputes by focusing on permit or regulatory development, when necessary, we are vigorous and effective litigators.
