Lakewood, NY
Babst Calland’s New York-based office provides sophisticated counsel to clients across a range of industries and business sectors – from heavy and light manufacturing, mining, and energy to real estate and project development.
We focus on the current and emerging needs of clients to help navigate even the most complex business issues that intersect with various aspects of law, including environmental, energy and natural resources, corporate and commercial, litigation, and more. Our New York attorneys work collaboratively across legal disciplines and offices, offering clients an integrated approach that is both efficient and cost-effective.
Babst Calland’s Environmental practice is nationally recognized and among the largest and most well-regarded in the region. Unlike most law firms, Babst Calland’s environmental and regulatory attorneys focus on specific areas of concentration, including mining, natural resource development, oil and gas, air regulation, water permitting, hazardous and solid waste disposal, site remediation, and occupational safety and health, to name a few.
Our New York attorneys are highly specialized in providing counsel on remediation, permitting, compliance, and enforcement matters under federal and state environmental laws, with a primary focus on contaminated site cleanups, brownfield redevelopment, and environmental risk management in mergers and acquisitions. In addition, we regularly monitor the development of federal, state and local regulations throughout the country and represent clients in challenging regulations and defending federal and state enforcement actions.
With nearly four decades of experience in handling a variety of legal and regulatory matters for a wide range of clients from Fortune 100 to small and mid-sized businesses and organizations, Babst Calland has built our reputation on an uncompromising commitment to client service. We work as a team, not as a group of sole practitioners. In addition to embracing the philosophy of outstanding client service, Babst Calland embraces an “in the trenches” approach, as many of our attorneys bring specific industry and corporate backgrounds to their practice areas.
Our choice of locations exemplifies our commitment to client service. We staff each location with experienced attorneys who understand the unique concerns of clients in their specific region. We understand each geographic footprint and tailor legal strategies accordingly, with a deep knowledge of state regulations and local jurisdictions. Quite simply, to better serve our clients, we open offices where our clients are – and where they need us most.
Located in the Chautauqua Region of New York State, our Lakewood office is just minutes west of the City of Jamestown. With five other offices located in the U.S., Babst Calland has been providing legal services since 1986. Headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pa., Babst Calland also has offices in Charleston, W.Va., Harrisburg, Pa., State College, Pa., and Washington, D.C.
