Jennifer Baker provided exceptional counsel during a challenging environmental remediation for our manufacturing facility. Her deep, 26-year expertise in environmental law was immediately apparent. She expertly navigated the regulatory landscape and litigation risks, clearly drawing on her recognized standing in this field. Her strategic advice from Barnes & Thornburg was invaluable in reaching a favorable outcome. While her billing is commensurate with her high level of experience, some communications during the project's peak could have been slightly more prompt. Overall, Jennifer is a formidable and knowledgeable attorney I would confidently recommend for any complex environmental matter.
