Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), sometimes called “forever chemicals,” are rising in public awareness, government regulation and related litigation. Companies that currently use or historically used or manufactured products containing PFAS are subject to increasing regulation and potential liability associated with the use, the impact on the environment, reporting and disposal of PFAS. Duane Morris’ dedicated group of professionals monitor, analyze and counsel clients on various aspects of PFAS, including companies who are developing technology to capture and eradicate PFAS from water and solids.
