King & Spalding LLP ’s team is well-established across a range of matters, including materials compliance, incident response, extended producer responsibility, as well as, renewable fuels. A key example of this is practice-head Ilana Saltzbart from the Washington DC office, who is recommended for her work on renewable fuels-related issues, as well as, new regulations involving battery storage, recycling, and transportation. Leading the government matters and regulation sub-practice from DC, Granta Nakayama has positioned himself as a key advisor across a broad practice covering air, water, waste, toxic chemicals, pesticide enforcement, and compliance work. Karl Heisler of the Chicago office handles a breadth of incident response issues, spanning from fires and explosions, right through to pipeline releases and the abandonment of hazardous waste, while drawing from his chemical engineering background Los Angeles-based Peter Hsiao heads the firm’s West Coast environmental, health & safety practice. The firm has seen an increased caseload on ESG and sustainability claims and on this front, Joseph Eisert is a key contact, while Cynthia Stroman, also based at the DC office, assists on PFAS matters.
