California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)

A key component of our environmental and natural resources law practice is the expert counsel we offer focused on the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). To maintain both environmental stewardship and regulatory compliance, Kronick attorneys advise public and private clients in preparing CEQA environmental documents for proposed projects. Our team’s pre-planning assistance also helps maximize environmental protection while minimizing costs.

Through our representation of public agency clients, as well as private clients involved in projects requiring agency approvals, Kronick’s attorneys have considerable experience ensuring that environmental review documents, including impact reports, are legally defensible. We also rely upon Kronick’s historically strong water rights practice to advise our clients on the particulars of water rights, transfers, reclamation, and regulations.
