What does an energy and environmental lawyer in the USA do?
An energy and environmental lawyer advises on energy, natural resources and infrastructure projects, environmental permits and compliance, and climate-related regulation. You are likely to need one when you develop or invest in an energy or resources project, need environmental permits or face an environmental compliance issue.
How do I find a good energy and environmental lawyer in the USA?
Check that they are qualified or registered to practise in the USA, for example with the local bar association or professional body, and that they have handled matters like yours, including any cross-border element. Ask who will do the work, which languages they work in and how they charge before you instruct them. Each energy and environmental lawyer listed on this page has a profile with their firm, practice areas and contact details, so you can compare them before getting in touch.
How much does an energy and environmental lawyer in the USA cost?
Fees depend on the firm, the experience of the person advising you and how complex the matter is. Firms commonly charge by the hour, a fixed fee for a defined piece of work, or a combination of the two. Ask for a written estimate and the terms of engagement before any work starts.
Do I need a local energy and environmental lawyer in the USA if I am based abroad?
Matters governed by the law of the USA, or that involve its courts, registries or authorities, usually need an adviser qualified there. If you already have an adviser at home, they can often work alongside a local energy and environmental lawyer in the USA, which keeps the advice joined up on cross-border matters.
