Since 2003, SL Environmental Law Group has worked to ensure that public agencies and their communities are not burdened with the cost of treating contamination. The firm focuses exclusively on contamination litigation, including claims over PFAS, 1,4 dioxane, perchlorate, and 1,2,3 trichloropropane (TCP). This approach enables clients to recover expenses rather than pass them on to customers. SL represents more than 300 entities in the Aqueous Film-Forming Foam multidistrict litigation against PFAS manufacturers (AFFF MDL No. 2873). SL anticipates recovering nearly $1 billion for its clients from the first phase of the 3M and DuPont settlements alone, with additional recoveries expected from settlements with other manufacturers.
