(April 10) – Holland & Knight announced Monday it is expanding its environmental practice in Texas with the additions of Austin partners John Riley and Paul Sarahan.
Riley and Sarahan, who jump to Holland & Knight from Kelley Drye, are former directors of litigation at the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality.
“John and Paul are some of the best environmental litigation attorneys in the country,” Mark Davis, executive partner of Holland & Knight’s Austin office, said in a statement. “They are fantastic resources for Holland & Knight’s local and national clients, especially those in the energy and chemical industries.”
Riley, who was at TCEQ from 1994 to 1998, focuses his practice on permitting and enforcement matters in the air, water and waste media.
Sarahan’s practice includes civil and criminal enforcement, permitting, auditing, litigation, workplace safety, air quality, water rights, water quality, waste handling and disposal, and Superfund/CERCLA matters. His tenure at TCEQ lasted from 1998 to 2005.
