AltmanNewman Co., LPA

At AltmanNewman Co., LPA, our mission centers on environmental law and its profound influence on individuals, families, communities, and local governance. Serving both private citizens and public entities—including families, community associations, nonprofits, businesses involved in water management or waste operations—is at the heart of what we do. We are dedicated to mitigating pollution issues or securing cleanups through a variety of state and federal legal mechanisms. Our expertise encompasses a wide range of environmental concerns such as: - Water quality including groundwater - Air contamination - Pollution affecting drinking water - Sewer-related problems like backups or overflows - Chemical exposure incidents involving hazardous substances - Violations regarding permits and regulatory compliance - Issues related to PFAS—dangerous "forever chemicals" - Environmental justice initiatives Since the early 1980s, AltmanNewman has orchestrated significant victories against numerous public and private offenders contributing to air degradation along with the contamination of streams, rivers lakes groundwater areas through reckless practices such as illegal dumping. Most victories arise from citizen suit provisions present in federal laws that empower individuals to challenge polluters directly; these laws provide essential avenues for enforcement when governmental watchdogs fall short. Every major federal environmental regulation incorporates this provision—and many states have adopted similar frameworks—enabling regular citizens not only to halt pollution but also initiate inquiries into cleanup actions for tainted lands waters alike. When successful in their claims most plaintiffs can recoup attorney fees costs from those responsible for damage! As funding priorities shift within agencies away from stringent regulations safeguarding affected populations citizen lawsuits grow increasingly vital! THIS IS AN ADVERTISEMENT.
