We have written elsewhere about Peiffer Wolf Carr & Kane’s lawsuit on behalf of Los Angeles residents who live near dangerous, polluting oil wells. Today, the New York Times published an editorial that discusses the lawsuit and highlights the public-health ramifications of oil drilling in urban areas.
You can find the editorial here. Adam Wolf, a shareholder of the firm and an attorney prosecuting the case, stated: “We are committed to ensuring healthy communities across the country, regardless of race, ethnicity, or income. No company or industry should prioritize profits over people.”
