PFAS

Overview

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have emerged as a significant concern due to their widespread use, persistence in the environment, and alleged adverse health effects. As regulatory scrutiny intensifies and public awareness grows, legal issues surrounding PFAS have become a focal point for various stakeholders, including governments, businesses, and affected communities. Our law firm provides comprehensive legal services tailored to navigate the evolving landscape of PFAS regulation and litigation.

PFAS regulation spans various levels of government, including federal, state, and international bodies. At the federal level, agencies such as the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) play a role in setting standards and guidelines for PFAS management and remediation. State governments have also enacted their own regulations, often imposing stricter standards or requirements than federal counterparts. Additionally, international agreements and conventions address PFAS management on a global scale, contributing to the complexity of compliance for businesses operating across borders.
