Our Waterfront Law Team’s Poultry Farms Case Experience

Our leading waterfront law team is experienced in defending both sides of environmental citizen’s lawsuits on both the plaintiff’s side and the defendant’s side. Fishermen, companies that operate in the hospitality industry, and waterfront property owners, should monitor cleanliness of water in creeks, rivers, and the Chesapeake Bay.  Everyone should monitor cleanliness of groundwater and the amount of groundwater available to support the needs of the community.

Potential poultry farms cases that may arise include, but are not limited to:

  • Pollution of groundwater and surface water
  • Nitrogen runoff
  • Large quantity water usage tapping limited resources and depleting aquifers

Client Testimonials

REAL ESTATE INVESTOR IN VIRGINIA BEACH VA

★★★★★

Thank Trust and heart are the two words that I will use to describe working with Jim Lang. I trust Mr. Lang to do a great job for me, and let me know up front what my legal fees will total. In the past, he has given me the option to do some of the legal work myself in order to stay within my budget. Mr. Lang also has a heart. He understands life's many ups and downs. I felt that he was really on my side, that he was concerned about me, and how I was doing with my new business. Mr. Lang is an outstanding lawyer but more importantly, Mr. Lang is a good man. I highly recommend him.

SMALL BUSINESS OWNER IN VIRGINIA BEACH VA

★★★★★

Jim Lang has represented my company and myself in litigation several times. These were events that occurred at years of doing business of no fault of my own. I can not express the relief of having Jim by my side. The courtroom is not a place I like to find myself. He was very knowledgeable, professional, and understanding. He explained all my options and even what was going to occur before it happened. He knew what opposing council was going to do like as if he read their notes. I never at any time felt my decision for him to represent me was a wrong decision. I know sometimes life has a way of creating issues beyond your control. These issues can be handled in and a lot of times out of court. I know as long as James (Jim) Lang is my attorney I sleep better at night for those what if's life sometimes throws at you.

HELPED CLIENTS BUILD PIER ON THE EASTERN SHORE VA

★★★★★

My husband, Paul, and myself cannot say enough good things about our experience with Pender and Coward. We worked with James Lang and Jeff Wilson on a rather complicated issue that we were not sure we could get a solution to. However, because of their professionalism, their vast knowledge and the ease with which they worked with us, it ended up to be a great success story. They were able to handle something a bit out of the norm and helped us achieve our goal without the issue escalating. They listened and actually heard us and their communication was always immediate and personal. We can't thank them enough. They lifted a huge weight off our shoulders and we are forever grateful.
