Environmental Law

The Environmental Law Group at Kahn, Soares & Conway provides the broadest possible range of services for clients dealing with the increasingly complex legal, administrative and legislative arenas.
Just some of the areas in which we have counseled clients include:

Administrative rules
Creating them
Interpreting them
Challenging them
Advocating before legislative and regulatory bodies
Air Quality
CEQA
CERCLA (Superfund)
Crop protection
Endangered species
Environmental permits
Food Quality Protection Act
Fumigants
Pesticide registration
Pesticide regulatory matters
Proposition 65
Takings
Toxics and hazardous substances
Water Quality
Wetlands

A good portion of the environmental law group's work involves counseling clients on their options for meeting challenges. The solution may take the form of helping clients understand a complex set of statutes, regulations and case law. Sometimes we counsel clients to challenge existing law or decisions, either directly through action in the administrative arena or the courts; sometimes we can better assist by advocating a change in the law on behalf of clients. When necessary, we negotiate and litigate the matter to conclusion.
