Profile

Abigail counsels clients on environmental, energy, natural resources, and sustainability-related matters across industries. She represents clients in matters arising under federal and state environmental laws, including enforcement actions under the Clean Water Act, CERCLA, and Prop 65. She assists clients in navigating complex permitting, with a focus on renewable energy projects, and performs environmental due diligence in connection with the acquisition of energy and water infrastructure projects. Abigail is also experienced with Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) regulations and supports the firm’s climate and sustainability-focused work for multinational clients with global supply chains. Prior to joining Hunton, Abigail worked as a legal extern for a publicly traded consumer products company, where she advised the business on regulatory compliance and assisted with SEC and sustainability reporting and gained valuable experience that helps her provide counsel that balances business and legal concerns.

During law school, Abigail supported a professor in writing the first-ever casebook on Confined Animal Feeding Operations (forthcoming). Abigail also sat on the Lewis & Clark Sustainability Council, where she worked with professors and administrators to reduce the school’s waste volume, acquire onsite renewable energy sources, and increase sustainability topics in the curriculum.
