New Clients

We offer free consultations for individuals, groups, and organizations who want to explore legal solutions to an environmental or public health problem. Please call our office at 314-231-4181 to set up a consultation.

Cases will be accepted where there is a broad public interest involved and the client’s financial interest in the outcome is insufficient to justify retention of a private law firm.

Factors considered in determining whether to accept a case include:

  • significance of the environmental impact;
  • likelihood of obtaining a favorable result;
  • possibility of establishing a legal precedent of broad significance;
  • support of environmental groups;
  • availability of funding; and
  • degree to which the case fits the strategic plans of Great Rivers Environmental Law Center.
