Environmental Law

Environmental law is a combination of state and federal statutes and regulations, local ordinances, and case law dedicated to protecting, managing, and maintaining clean air, water pollution, hazardous and solid waste, and our wetlands. At the Law Offices of Willis & Gresek, our environmental law attorneys assist clients in complying with regulations to protect them from violations and penalties; advise them on hazardous waste, cleanup, and Superfund issues; and represent individuals and organizations in actions alleging violations of environmental laws and regulations.

Our environmental law representation includes:

• Industrial Site Recovery Act (ISRA)
• Site Remediation
• Brownfield Properties
• Real Property and Business Transactions
• Cleanup Cost and Insurance Recovery
• Compliance Counseling

ISRA

Environmental concerns can affect both businesses and individuals. Whether you are selling your business and are concerned with the impact of New Jersey’s Industrial Site Recovery Act (ISRA), or you are purchasing a home and want to ensure that you are not buying an environmental nightmare, our experienced environmental law attorneys can respond to your needs. We analyze ISRA’s applicability to your transaction, serve as your liaison with the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, work cooperatively with consultants and contractors, and help develop cost-effective investigations and cleanups.

Site Remediation

Federal and state laws impose strict liability for the cost of cleaning up contaminated properties on their past and present owners and occupants. Our lawyers work with clients on remediation issues ranging from bringing cost recovery actions and regulatory advice, to negotiating agreements for the investigation and cleanup of operating facilities.

Brownfield Properties

Are you interested in purchasing contaminated property for redevelopment and reuse? The environmental law attorneys at the Law Offices of Willis & Gresek can help you pursue economic incentives offered by Brownfields programs and counsel you regarding insurance policies and other tools to help manage the risk.

Real Property and Business Transactions

We have extensive experience in analyzing and managing liability and compliance issues involving leases, property purchases and sales, and corporate transactions. Our law firm regularly teams up with in-house corporate counsel to prepare and negotiate contract provisions that effectively allocate risks and responsibilities.
