Water Practice
Downey Brand's reputation as one of the West's premier water law firms
is due in part to its historical ties to water law in California, the
number of water law attorneys that practice at the firm, the impressive
list of water law clients who come to the firm and the caliber of water
law cases that the firm has attracted.
The firm's water practice has expertise in many areas, including:
- water rights
- water transfers
- groundwater
- federal reclamation law
- flood control and drainage
- public agency and elections law
Additionally, the firm has a statewide water
quality practice that advises clients on the full range
of issues they might face under the Clean Water Act and the Porter-Cologne
Water Quality Act.
