Environmental regulation can result in costly interruptions of business operations. Our environmental regulatory team has the knowledge and relationships to find solutions to avoid these problems or when faced with such a challenge to get clients back on track. Navigating these complex regulations and regulatory relationships is Liskow’s stock in trade.
Overview
Regulatory relationships are essentially about an ongoing back-and-forth – a conversation, if you will – between a governmental body and a business. Environmental regulations can be extremely complex, technically demanding and are always changing. Clients are often engaged in working with several agencies at different levels of government simultaneously. We help them deal with it all.
Partnering with regulators
We have found, over the many decades that we’ve been practicing in this area of law, that it is best to view regulators as partners rather than adversaries. In representing our clients with regulators, we draw on working relationships that have been built up over years. These allow us to work with regulators rather than against them, and above all, to bring credibility and experience to negotiations that accelerate a solution.
