Ragsdale Liggett represents clients in various aspects of environmental law, including litigation, toxic tort and private damage actions. A toxic tort is an injury to a person's bodily integrity or financial situation caused by contact with a toxic substance such as lead-based paint, chemical solvents, pesticides, asbestos or toxic landfill wastes. Among our high profile cases is a winning argument before the California Supreme Court on a significant water contamination case, argued by Partner Mary Hulett, who has handled cases involving lead and other environmental contaminations.
Within the area of commercial disputes and product liability litigation, our firm is known for mass tort defense expertise and the ability to effectively litigate these complex cases. We routinely handle permitting and other administrative proceedings before the Environmental Protection Agency, North Carolina Division of Soil and Water Conservation Commission and other state agencies. Our firm advises and assists clients in evaluating environmental impacts and liabilities arising in connection with business and real estate transactions.
