Collins Law Group

Collins Law Group has represented numerous individuals, not-for-profit organizations, homeowners associations, and local governments both throughout Florida and across the country in their quest to protect Florida’s environment. We focus primarily on the Endangered Species Act, the Marine Mammal Protection Act, NEPA, the Magnuson Stevens Act, the Oil Pollution Act, the Clean Water Act, NPDES, TMDL, environmental resource and joint coastal permitting issues.

Our firm also focuses on combating climate change and promoting energy efficiency.

Collins Law Group promotes responsible and sustainable growth. We have experience in negotiating settlements and litigating precedent-setting cases influencing and enforcing comprehensive plans, local zoning ordinances, land development regulations, and developments of regional impact.

We continually strive to help preserve Florida’s wild and natural places and to ensure that taxpayers do not bear the burden of unsustainable growth.

Collins Law Group works with local governments in their efforts to protect their local environment and quality of life. We have experience in annexation, zoning, land development regulations, public records, eminent domain, green building, NPDES, and TMDL permitting issues.

We are proud to foster positive working relationships between Floridians and their local governments and help local governments achieve a high quality of life for their citizens.

Collins Law Group assists clients in creating, organizing, educating, and mobilizing powerful coalitions to advance environmental protection and sustainable growth. Our efforts have helped influence policy from global warming and energy efficiency issues to coastal zone management, preserving our national parks, and even ending overfishing.

We have appeared before numerous boards and councils of local governments, of the Department of Environmental Protection, of the Water Management Districts, the Governor and Cabinet, and legislators in both Tallahassee and Washington, D.C.

We consider it our top priority to ensure all Floridians have a voice in government.

When environmental and land use protections cannot be achieved outside of the courtroom, we have experience in state, federal, civil, and administrative courts to provide solid representation.

Collins Law Group also has experience in utilizing highly technical environmental and land use experts in negotiation and litigation. Our attorneys are members of the Florida Bar, and the United States District Court, Middle District of Florida.
