Reed Smith LLP

Reed Smith LLP’s team of environmental lawyers routinely acts on a range of environmentally related transactions, encompassing M&A, real estate transactions, restructuring, and corporate deals. The team is overseen by the combined leadership of Jennifer Smokelin, Houston’s Benjamin Patton, and Megan Haines, who divides her time between Houston and Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh-based Smokelin’s practice straddles environmental-related regulatory, litigation, and transactional mandates, and within the transactional space, is well-positioned to advise energy and manufacturing companies. Another key name to note is New York’s Peter Trimarchi, who is active across the board and has noted strength on matters regarding the financing and development of renewable energy projects.
