Matt helps clients navigate a broad range of complex environmental issues that pose challenges and create opportunities for their businesses.  He has deep experience advising clients about environmental risks, liabilities and regulatory obligations in high-stakes cases and transactions across a wide range of industry sectors and jurisdictions.  Matt holistically assesses each client’s unique needs and designs legal strategies to achieve practical, lasting solutions. 

Matt’s practice focuses on contamination matters, environmental issues in commercial and real estate transactions, environmental compliance counseling, and litigation and agency proceedings under various federal and state environmental laws, including the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), the Clean Air Act and the Clean Water Act.  Matt also has substantial experience with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), the Endangered Species Act, the Federal Power Act, the Toxic Substances Control Act and the Occupational Safety and Health Act, among other regulatory frameworks.  Matt routinely works with environmental consultants, whose technical capabilities complement Hogan Lovells’ legal support in a seamless, cost-effective manner.

Before joining Hogan Lovells, Matt was a senior attorney at a prominent environmental public interest organization, where his work focused on the power sector and on clean water, clean air, and contamination matters.  Earlier on, he was an associate at two other major international law firms in Washington, D.C., where his practice focused on appellate and general commercial litigation, including environmental and products liability cases, as well as white collar investigations. 

Matt clerked for the Hon. Cornelia (Nina) Pillard of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit and the Hon. David Ebel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit in Denver.
