1. Experienced Environmental Lawyer [in New Jersey and Federal]
Mr. Stavola is an excellent and experienced environmental lawyer who specializes in environmental law. From resolving disputes involving contaminated properties to protecting clients from liability, I ensure that every party complies with local laws and regulations.
This environmental lawyer in New Jersey represents individuals, organizations, and entities seeking to oppose land-use development projects and other environmental concerns. I begin the process by analyzing the intersecting ecological regulations, zoning ordinances, relevant statutes, and case law to provide clients with the best possible guidance. Then, I appear before local planning and zoning boards and, if necessary, pursue litigation in the state’s court system to facilitate the desired outcome.
Contact your environmental attorney immediately if a proposed land use application or development threatens to encroach on your area or imperils the quality of air, water, and natural resources.

I represent, and am willing to represent, any individual person, non-profit organization, government entity, etc. I am currently working to stop the offshore wind turbine preparatory activity along the New Jersey and New York coastlines due to the potential link between the high-intensity noise devices used to characterize the seabed floors and the rising number of whale and dolphin deaths offshore. Regardless of the infringement, this environmental lawyer aims to protect and repair our natural resources, plants, animals, and air.
Regardless of where you live in the United States, this environmental lawyer may be able to assist you with federal claims. Contact me today!
