Agricultural Law
Our attorneys at Gatens Green Weidenbach are experienced in the broad array of legal and regulatory issues affecting agricultural production, marketing, and distribution businesses.
The agricultural industry is large in scope and the laws and regulations are extremely complex, often overlapping with other areas of law, such as labor, environmental, and commercial laws. We advise a variety of clients in the agricultural industry, including farm owners, operators, packers, transporters, processors, and retailers, as well as supporting technology businesses and other related businesses. Our sophisticated agricultural clients are facing an ever-increasing set of regulations, and we provide valuable assistance in navigating those legal issues. We assist these clients with contractual matters, litigation, and regulatory compliance.
At the heart of agriculture is water. Our attorneys regularly advise on the multitude of legal issues presented by agricultural water use and demands, including use and distribution of irrigation water subject to the Reclamation Act. We can assist with securing water rights for development of agricultural projects, including related purchase or lease documentation and appropriate change applications.
