Drawing on decades of experience in chemistry, biochemistry, ecology, and biology, our engineers and scientists conduct field and laboratory investigations to identify or characterize biological and chemical challenges impacting soil, sediment, groundwater, surface water, and waste.
Addressing Groundwater, Surface Water, Soil, and Sediment
Leading law firms turn to our well-known technical experts. We serve as a trusted resource for firms seeking to determine quantitative liability allocation among potentially responsible parties (PRPs) at contaminated sites. We have provided expert opinions and forensic analysis regarding the extent and source of contamination; probable migration pathways; the timing of contaminant release based on chemical fingerprinting and other forensics techniques; and feasible remediation alternatives for impacted properties.
Environmental Forensics to Support, Compliance, Litigation, and Toxic Tort
We offer the specialized expertise necessary for lawyers to counsel their clients and advocate for client interests on a wide range of matters related to business transactions, environmental management, compliance and enforcement, toxic tort, and general and environmental litigation. Our practitioners quickly grasp the scope and nuances of important environmental issues and develop sound and defensible technical insights for clients.
Innovating in Environmental Forensics: Collaboration that Spans Practices
Many of our consultants have participated in key research developments and have pioneered technical approaches underpin their practices. Some are extensively involved in developing regulations and technical guidance. We continue to make technical advances in areas such as geotechnical engineering, vapor intrusion, sustainability, waste management, and remediation of emerging contaminants.
