"Alison has assisted the [local government] on quite a few projects and is still currently handling several.  She has been very helpful to the [local government] in her assistance.   She tells it to you straight.  She explains exactly what steps need taken and the best way to handle them.  She is always explaining the best way to handle the situation and the consequences involved under different scenarios.  I know that [the Court] has appreciated and respected her advice and made numerous decisions based on her information and recommendations."  Local government official, December 2005.

• Yikes!  If you work with all those clients and agencies, would you have the time to devote to our small company?!

Yes, because of the systems we've developed.  Plus, these lists are not intended to imply that we work for all of these clients today (although our Founder has in the past).  But this assures you that, if you've got an environmental issue, we've probably solved something quite like it before.

Did you really look at that mountain of information above?

Or did you just scroll right to the bottom so that you could see the boot??
