Sara Peterson, Parkway Law

Completing cleanup and redevelopment of large or complex contaminated sites takes years, even decades. It also requires extensive collaboration among many adverse parties, each facing massive liability risks. Sara will discuss her role as an environmental attorney on these projects, using case studies including a former Army ammunition plant in the Twin Cities, a former wood treatment facility within the Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe Reservation in northern Minnesota, and a former industrial site in Chicago.

Sara Peterson has been advising and representing clients on environmental regulatory compliance issues and environmental and regulatory aspects of transactions for over fifteen years. After working in a large Minneapolis law firm for ten years, Sara founded Parkway Law in 2011. Sara has been recognized as a “Rising Star” by Minnesota Law & Politics magazine in 2008, 2009, and 2014, and as a “Super Lawyer” in 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019 for her environmental and regulatory law practice.
