Kegan A. Brown’s practice focuses on environmental litigation, environmental regulation, product liability, toxic torts, ESG, and transactional due diligence. He represents clients throughout the full lifecycle of complex environmental and products liability litigations and regulatory matters.  He has successfully defended claims in numerous federal and state courts across the country, including the first two natural resource damage actions to ever go to trial in New Jersey (both of which resulted in complete defense verdicts).
