How did your firm decide on the primary area of practice(s)?

This public interest lawfirm is dedicated to providing affordable and quality legal representation to non-profit environmental groups, big and small.

What experience or education distinguishes your lawyers from others

We are one of a handful of lawfirms state-wide specializing in representing environmental non-profits in litigation against local government and state agencies. We have a well-established (over ten years) record of obtaining good results for our clients, going against well-funded opponents.

What distinguishes your law firm from others?

We are different to most other firms because we are experienced in taking on cases across California, from southern California, through the central coast, San Joaquin Valley and northern California, in federal and state courts, both at the trial court level as well as the courts of appeal. Because of the experience of our staff, we are able to handle most aspects of litigation in-house, including record preparation and discovery. What also distinguishes us from other firms is our ability and willingness (in most cases) to work at substantially below market rates.
