Environmental Law
As environmental law attorneys in Houston we represent clients in the petrochemical industry and other industries charged with violating environmental regulations and laws. With years of experience representing large, multinational defendants in the toxic tort arena, both throughout the state of Texas and nationally we have handled a variety of environmental law claims.
Our clients face claims stemming from the manufacture, installation, handling, sale and disposal of chemicals and other allegedly hazardous substances. If you are under investigation for an environmental law crime, Department of Justice prosecutors must prove that you intended to violate an environmental regulation or law such as the Clean Water Act, Oil Pollution Act, CERCLA, Clean Air Act, OSHA or the Toxic Substances Control Act.
Whether or not the alleged violation was intentional, our experienced team of attorneys knows how to aggressively defend these charges and get your business the best result possible.
