The Environmental Law group of Moss & Barnett is prepared to respond to all client needs in the area of environmental law and regulation. Our attorneys assist clients with the assessment of environmental issues and liabilities in mergers and acquisitions, as well as in real estate transactions. We are also involved with litigation related to contaminated property. Moss & Barnett attorneys have extensive experience in both the public and private law sectors, including broad experience in dealing with regulations and permitting matters involving air quality, water quality, and solid and hazardous waste management. We have represented clients in enforcement and permitting proceedings before federal agencies, including the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, OSHA, the U.S. Department of Transportation, as well as the gamut of state and local environmental agencies. In 2004, our law firm successfully defended a local business owner against a pollution claim brought by the State of Minnesota that resulted in recovery of all attorneys’ fees incurred by our client and recognition as "Lawsuit of the Year" by Minnesota Law & Politics. Moss & Barnett serves as outside environmental counsel to corporations with operations throughout the United States. We also help clients develop environmental management and auditing programs designed to address compliance and permitting issues.
