The team at Mayer Brown is highly sought after for its experience litigating environmental matters, particularly those to do with tort claims and those falling under the Clean Water Act and Clean Air Act. The practice is co-led from Chicago by Mark Ter Molen, who handles enforcement matters and regulatory hearings and appeals conducted before state and federal agencies, Rich Bulger, who co-leads the environmental action group representing clients in environmental, toxic tort, and administrative law matters, in addition to Timothy Bishop , who has extensive experience handling water contamination issues. Also based in Chicago, Jaimy Hamburg is recommended for her wide practice which encompasses a spread of toxic tort suits, class actions, citizen suits and government enforcement actions.
