Fresh water is becoming a scarce resource in the United States and across the globe as demand continues to rise due to population and business growth. This emergent scarcity means businesses will face more consequences of the complex regulatory and legal frameworks governing water use and water quality.
Michael Best’s Water team understands those issues. We guide clients through the heavily regulated, politically sensitive environment surrounding the management of, investment in, and development of water resources.
From artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to autonomous vehicles, virtual reality, and cryptocurrency, the rapid evolution of technology shows no sign of slowing down. Companies in the digital technology sector are among the world’s most highly valued companies, with good reason. And businesses in every sector now use digital technology in all kinds of ways, from basic email to sophisticated data analytics.
All businesses have to comply with government regulations—some more so than others. Our Regulatory practice is designed to serve clients in heavily regulated industries, such as manufacturing and utility services, as well as across various industries in regulated areas that impact business as a whole, such as environmental regulation.

We know construction work site summer temperatures can be well over a 100 degrees. Certain trades like roofers, asphalt/concrete crews face extreme high summer temperatures during their work days. OSHA, as of April 8, 2022, launched a National Emphasis Program (NEP) focusing on heat-related illnesses and injuries in both indoor and outdoor worksites. Failure to proactively take steps to protect employees from heat related hazards can lead to fines and worker heat illnesses. Construction work is among those industries that are specifically targeted. This NEP gives OSHA another reason to stop at your worksites to see if you are in compliance—and also then to discover any other potential violations. This Michael Best Construction College webinar will be presented by Roy Wagner, Leader of Construction Law and Bethany McCurdy, Employment, OSHA and Workplace Safety Practice Team and will discuss:
Bethany advises and represents employers on the many facets of the employment relationship. Clients turn to her for counsel on the everyday dealings of employees, such as accommodating disabled employees, administering the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), and reviewing handbooks and policies.
Roy is a Partner in the firm’s Real Estate Practice Group and leads the firm’s Construction Law Group.
