Five law firms have emerged prominently in this week’s recognition of legal achievements by Law360’s Legal Lions. The D.C. Circuit Court’s decision to reinstate an order that prevents the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency from suspending grants for climate change initiatives marked a significant success for these firms. This reinstatement is viewed as a critical step in maintaining momentum for climate-related projects, underscoring the judiciary’s role in environmental policy.
