There Is a Way
Even in the best of circumstances, protecting land through use of environmental laws can result in expensive, contentious, and time-consuming litigation. Fortunately, there are other tools in the land protection toolbox, namely the use of conservation easements and fee title acquisition. While Conservation & Preservation Counsel can assist clients in land use and environmental litigation, CPC's preferred area of practice is working with land trusts and landowners to develop and implement conservation easements and deed restrictions that protect our most precious lands in perpetuity. CPC's scope of representation has recently expanded to assisting land trusts and landowners develop and market carbon offsets. Carbon offsets can be achieved in many ways, from avoided deforestation to planting trees. By adding carbon offset revenues to favorable financial outcomes from the sale or donation of conservation easements, it is now possible for landowners to achieve even more benefits from the creation of a conservation easement Follow this link to learn about CPC's non-profit billing rates and discounted group rate legal services packages. |
