Our environmental attorneys began defending claims of environmental contamination and toxin exposure in the early 1980’s.  Since that time, litigation related to environmental contamination and toxin exposure has rapidly grown as environmental practices have come under closer scrutiny.  Throughout this time, our environmental defense lawyers have been at the forefront of litigating these complex multi-party actions.

Our attorneys have successfully defended product manufacturers and distributors against claims alleging personal injury or wrongful death stemming from asbestos exposure.  In addition, our attorneys have extensive experience defending property owners and contractors against claims alleging personal injury or property damage stemming from alleged exposure to chemicals, lead paint, mold, silica and other toxins.  Our environmental attorneys regularly defend Fortune 500 companies, family owned business, property owners and their insurers against environmental claims relating to CERCLA, RCRA and New York’s igation Law.

Our years of defense experience , together with our long-standing relationships with experts who are at the forefront of this ever-changing practice area, enable our environmental attorneys to obtain the most efficient, economical and favorable
results for our clients.
