Partner Aaron Gershonowitz Publishes Article in the Latest Issue of the New York Law Journal.
NYLJ: “Atlantic Research: Who Can Sue for Remediation Costs?” 8/3/07

Mineola, August 03, 2007 — Partner Aaron Gershonowitz has published an article in the latest issue of the Nassau Lawyer. The article, “Atlantic Research: Who can Sue for Remediation Costs?” provides an in-depth discussion of the ‘Atlantic Research’ decision and explores its potential impact.

Summarizing one of the main points of the article, Gershonowitz explains, "The Supreme Court in Atlantic Research, has found a way to avoid the problems created by Aviall, without overturning Aviall. By providing the volunteer with a claim, the volunteer is more likely to cleanup and other PRPs have an incentive to join in. The result should be more remediation and less litigation.”

Aaron Gershonowitz concentrates his practice in environmental law and has represented clients in a wide variety of environmental issues, including Superfund matters, RCRA compliance, asbestos in buildings, and the environmental aspects of real estate and corporate transactions. In addition, Mr. Gershonowitz’s practice has included the representation of military contractors with regard to closure of facilities, transfer of facilities, and the related negotiations with the United States government and local governmental agencies.
