By all accounts yesterday’s panel and networking reception, Careers in Environmental Law, was a great success. Lawyers from the Environmental Protection Agency, the Natural Resources Defense Council, the Sierra Club, the California Department of Justice as well as a prestigious environmental law firm were on hand to offer advice about career opportunities in their offices. While the panelists shared many words of wisdom, all of the panelists agreed that environmental law is one of the most important legal issues of our generation and that the number of attorney positions in their offices continue to grow.
