Devoted Guidance From Resourceful Lawyers

Taking Care Of Dry Cleaners

Dry cleaners are a good business. It is a specialty market, but there’s always demand because – frankly – everyone does laundry. However, dry cleaners face significant regulatory and environmental law concerns. Without skilled legal assistance, your business may face large legal obstacles. At [nap_names id=”FIRM-NAME-1″], we have built a reputation for insight and commitment to businesses across the San Diego-Los Angeles corridor and their needs. We have extensive experience with California’s many environmental laws. We can help protect your business by keeping you compliant with current law and protecting you in court should an issue arise.

Legal Issues Facing Dry Cleaners

The dry-cleaning industry relies on the use of several highly regulated, dangerous chemicals. These chemicals have the potential to cause a considerable environmental risk, so, naturally, the government takes action on things like:

  • Spills
  • Contamination
  • Pollution
  • Exposure

Our firm has the experience to help you through the legal matters that come with dry-cleaning-related environmental regulation. We can give you our full attention and help you through the difficulties ahead.

Frequently Asked Questions About California Environmental Defense

My business received a Proposition 65 notice. What should I do?

Act quickly. Proposition 65 notices trigger a statutory clock, and how you respond early can significantly affect your options. Contact us as soon as possible so we can assess the claim and advise on the best path forward.

Can a current property owner be held liable for contamination they didn't cause?

In many cases, yes. CERCLA and related state laws can impose cleanup liability on current owners even without fault. Defenses are available, including innocent landowner protections. But they require careful legal work.

How long do we have to respond to an agency enforcement notice?

Deadlines vary by agency and notice type, and some response windows are very short. Contact us promptly after receiving any agency correspondence to make sure your rights are protected.
