Empowering people to make environmental laws work.
We have some good environmental laws in this country. But they're often not enforced because they're complex, and the people affected simply don't know where to begin. I help groups and individuals master the legal complexity so our environmental laws work.
Cases have included:
* Helping Central Oregon LandWatch stop urban sprawl
* Helping a water district keep mining pollution out of their groundwater supply
* Helping a coalition of neighbors, environmental groups and fishermen challenge an LNG terminal in Coos Bay.
NEWS: March 1, 2010: I am now employed with 1000 Friends of Oregon as Staff Attorney and Central Oregon Advocate. I will still take a small number of private land use or environmental cases. However, due to obvious time constraints, and potential conflicts, these will be quite limited. |
