Environmental Compliance & Remediation

Our Environmental Team Helps Clients Clean Up Real Property Problems.

Fabian VanCott’s attorneys understand the complex world of potential environmental liabilities, which enables us to assist with environmental remediation and compliance risks and with due diligence efforts.

We strategically and efficiently guide our clients through legal and regulatory requirements, minimize liability risk, devise strategies to manage and contain cleanup costs, and effectively prosecute and resolve litigation when it arises.

Because manufacturing, mining, real estate, and corporate transactions often implicate environmental liabilities and concerns arise regarding rising health risks to soil and ground water supplies, clients consistently look to Fabian VanCott attorneys to help navigate risks.

Clients benefit from our federal, state and local regulatory experience with agencies such as the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). We work closely with environmental consultants and provide our clients with cohesive and comprehensive legal counseling. We understand the subtleties of the many environmental laws regarding hazardous materials, including the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA), Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), and state and federal clean water laws and regulations.

We assist clients with due diligence investigations, zoning and permitting issues, hazardous material handling, regulatory compliance, responsible-party obligations, insurance coverage, and remediation obligations. We have effectively resolved a wide variety of hazardous waste cleanup and abatement claims, CERCLA and RCRA cost-recovery settlements and toxic tort actions, as well as enforcement actions brought by the EPA and state and local regulatory agencies.
