Environmental Law

Friebert, Finerty and St. John, S.C. has been involved in the field of environmental law for more than 30 years. Over the years, we have represented a broad range of large and small businesses, individuals, and governmental entities in a variety of environmental matters, including soil and groundwater cleanups, wastewater discharges, solid and hazardous waste management, landfill siting and operation, local zoning and land use disputes, criminal and civil enforcement actions, and insurance coverage disputes. The firm works on behalf of both plaintiffs and defendants in private cost recovery, contribution and environmental damage lawsuits in state and federal court, and in litigation and negotiations with governmental agencies.

We also assist numerous individual and corporate clients in dealing with environmental issues that arise in real estate and business transactions. Our lawyers have arranged for and reviewed countless environmental site assessments, negotiated and drafted environmental indemnities, and counseled clients regarding brownfield developments.

Whether a large or small business, a local government, or an individual, our breadth of experience allows us to provide practical and cost-effective advise and representation to all of our clients on all land use and environmental matters.
