With more than 40 years of experience, Kevin is an environmental, energy, and natural resources attorney who assists clients in resolving project development, regulatory compliance, and other transactional issues.
Kevin assists clients with the siting and development of major facilities; facility contract negotiations; federal, state, and local permitting; enforcement actions; property contamination issues; brownfields redevelopment; and due diligence in transactions.
He is particularly focused on renewable energy, including projects involving bioenergy (waste-to-energy) and biofuels (ethanol and biodiesel), as well as wastewater and waste management projects, and redevelopment of contaminated sites—such as solar energy projects on former landfills. Kevin is first and foremost a negotiator: with decades of experience, he readily anticipates what the other side is likely to seek and efficiently reaches the best deal possible.
Early in his career, Kevin worked for state environmental agencies before shifting to private practice. His years in the public sector taught him how to handle regulatory compliance matters, and his longstanding relationships with key players in the environmental and energy spheres help him resolve client matters quickly so that projects can move forward.
Kevin enjoys resolving complex legal issues to add value in helping clients achieve their goals. He is a regular author and speaker on the legal and regulatory landscape for the environmental, energy, agribusiness, brownfields redevelopment, and waste management industries. He is a longtime member of the environmental law sections of both local and state bar associations and is active in several industry trade associations.
