Squire Patton Boggs
Led by Peter Gould in the Denver office, the environmental, safety & health group at Squire Patton Boggs represents a diverse clientele of mining, energy, chemicals and manufacturing companies seeking assistance with toxic tort defense and enforcement actions, as well as challenging new legislations. The Columbus office fields Karen Winters, who is a name to note for large-scale environmental liability and compliance issues and Vincent Atriano, who has extensive experience in the defense of governmental enforcement actions and citizen suits, indemnification claims and toxic tort class actions, in addition to Douglas McWilliams, whose workload includes matters related to the Clean Air Act and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act. Denver’s Carolyn McIntosh is also recommended for her ability to handle a spread of environmental, natural resources, and complex commercial litigation cases.
