This law firm helped our community oppose a bad development proposal

I recommend Lieberman Blecher & Sinkevich to people who need to oppose a bad development idea in their neighborhood.

After the Lieberman firm assembled our opposition the neighbors also mobilized with a strong communication campaign. Ultimately the applicant dropped the application. While no one knows what the future will bring, it’s good to know that this firm is there for the community. (R G., Mercer county)

Significant Insurance Settlement for Contaminated Passaic County Commercial Property Owners

My family has been involved in an environmental action since the early 1990s when the State of NJ designated our property in Pompton Lakes as an environmental hazard. I have been extremely pleased and grateful to Lieberman Blecher & Sinkevich because they have located a major source of funding which has enabled my family to bear the sizable cost of the environmental cleanup which the State of New Jersey has levied on the owner of the property. With the help of Lieberman Blecher & Sinkevich we received a very generous cash settlement. The money from the settlement is currently funding all of the environmental and legal costs of the cleanup and the on-going monitoring by the State. My family is very pleased to recommend Lieberman Blecher & Sinkevich to prospective clients who might benefit from their hard work and ingenuity. (J.R. and A.R., Los Angeles, CA; Sacramento, CA)

After years of owning a NJDEP registered property with no real plan but a constant worry about how to get the property cleaned up, I searched on the web for a NJ law firm who specialized in environmental issues. Lieberman Blecher & Sinkevich was the first firm that appeared in my search so I called and made an appointment. Meeting Lieberman Blecher & Sinkevich finally gave me a glimmer of hope about the environmental nightmare I was living for so many years.

In a short time, we made tremendous progress in not only having the property remediated but also having Lieberman Blecher & Sinkevich secure one of the large oil companies to participate in the financials of the clean-up.  (J.S., Neptune, NJ)

Commercial/Industrial Site Owner in Middlesex County, New Jersey Thanks the Environmental Lawyers at Lieberman Blecher & Sinkevich

Attorney Shari Blecher Fights to Recover Substantial Environmental Cleanup Costs at Former Gas Station Site

I met Shari back in 2011 during my initial meeting at Lieberman Blecher & Sinkevich. I was immediately impressed with her professionalism and confidence in that she could help me with the environmental issue on my property. With her experience in this field, Shari suggested a number of different avenues we could pursue as we collectively did more due diligence on the history of the property. After much discovery work it was identified that a large oil company had leased the property decades earlier.  After this discovery, Shari was not only able to track down the proper current oil corporation but more importantly succeeded in having them sign on to be responsible for a majority of the environmental clean-up of the property. Having lived for over 10 years with the fact that the property clean-up could ruin me financially, to hear the news from Shari that she had succeeded in securing financial responsibility from an oil corporation was unbelievable.  For the first time since I owned the property there was a now a legitimate path to having the property remediated.  That path was only possible due to Shari’s hard work, dedication to her clients, and her vast experience in the environmental field.
