Phillips Lytle is a national leader in environmental and energy law. Our extensive and successful history of representing a wide range of clients spans decades and includes our role as sole defense counsel to Occidental Chemical for personal injury actions, and co-counsel on cleanup actions related to Love Canal. Fortune 200 companies regularly rely on Phillips Lytle for assistance with environmental issues in New York. Our environmental experience dates back to the advent of water pollution legislation in 1970, the enactment of waste management laws in 1976, and landfill cleanup laws in 1980. Our rich history of progressive environmental representation has enabled our Environment & Energy Practice Area to evolve into one of the most sophisticated practices in the state and nation. We also have established an innovative and successful Brownfields Redevelopment practice, as well as one of the most comprehensive Environmental Impact Review practices in New York.
Our growing Environment & Energy practice consists primarily of trial and administrative law attorneys with training and experience in civil and criminal litigation in federal, state, and administrative proceedings. We advise business clients about regulatory compliance and environmental permit management. We also represent clients on matters involving new property development and the redevelopment of environmentally distressed property. Our Environment & Energy attorneys collaborate with our various other practice areas in order to give our clients the interdisciplinary depth that ensures they receive complete, cost-effective representation. To that end, many of our attorneys have backgrounds in corporate, banking, real estate, personal injury, and chemical exposure law.
