New Orleans Environmental Law Attorneys
The New Orleans environmental law attorneys of Chopin Wagar Richard & Kutcher, LLP provide legal counsel and defense for individuals, corporate businesses, industry representatives and government agencies throughout Louisiana and the Gulf Coast in environmental law, toxic tort and environmental litigation.
We understand both the commercial and scientific implications of a major class action suit involving the environment. We assist clients with issues involving:
- Landfill/solid waste management regulatory compliance
- Proper waste disposal
- Mold exposure and mold litigation
- Sick building syndrome
- Spill claims (toxic torts)
In addition to defending environmental litigation, we also assist clients in resolving environmental landfill issues or help clients assess the toxicology and environmental risk of certain industry practices they may wish to avoid. We then help them find alternative solutions in order to avoid future litigation. To learn more about how we can help your business, contact our Metairie office today for an initial case evaluation.
