  • John Willms is a consummate environmental law professional, with whom I had the pleasure of working with on several contaminated site projects.  John possesses the unique quality of combining knowledge from both the environmental sciences and legal frameworks to the benefit of his clients.  He takes the effort to understand the technical issues at hand, and translate those into relevant legal (as well as strategic) guidance.  Gleaning relevant and accurate insight to the issues at hand was shown to be one of his strengths.  In conjunction with his clear and concise writing style, my interactions with him had concurrently helped improve my communication abilities as an environmental professional, for which I have been grateful.
