Day Pitney's Environmental and Land Use attorneys are experienced in all facets of environmental issues and real estate development. Since the 1970s, we have successfully defended clients in major toxic tort cases, including large class action and multiparty suits. Active in national Superfund cases since 1981, when the first Superfund cases were filed, we often have a leading role in defending potentially responsible parties, whether as PRP common counsel or as counsel to an individual entity in complex cost-recovery and allocation litigation. We also assist corporate, developer and institutional clients navigate the local, state and federal regulatory and permitting process. Though having a national practice, Day Pitney attorneys are experienced and actively involved in New Jersey, Connecticut and Massachusetts–states known for their complicated yet innovative land use and environmental regulations.
Day Pitney is also actively engaged in land use litigation either defending development approvals or challenging denials. Given some of the high-profile victories on behalf of clients, Day Pitney was recognized as the Real Estate Litigation Group of the Year in 2014. Day Pitney stays connected to the development community by being actively involved in various organizations such as NAIOP and the New Jersey Builder's Association.
