Parsons Behle & Latimer (Parsons) is pleased to announce that water law specialist Graham J. Gilbert has joined its Environmental & Natural Resources practice team. In addition to his extensive experience as a water law attorney, Gilbert holds a water rights certification from the Rural Water Association of Utah and the Utah Division of Water Rights.

Gilbert says, “Parsons Behle & Latimer is well known for its environmental and natural resources experience and attorneys. I am very much looking forward to working with and learning from the attorneys at Parsons as well as sharing my knowledge and experience.”

Gilbert’s water law experience is enhanced by his previous career as a hydrologist. As a hydrologist, he commonly interacted with engineers, attorneys and other professionals in all aspects of water rights and water development projects. Now an experienced water law attorney, he says, “My background gives me a deep understanding of the technical and legal issues related to water matters. This experience enhances my communication with engineers, governmental agencies and opposing counsel to best represent my clients.” Gilbert has a comprehensive set of water law-related skills, including experience with the appropriation, management and sale of water rights and the development of water projects. In addition, Gilbert regularly assists clients with real estate matters, including acquisition, entitlement, and development and disposition of real property. He also assists clients with environmental matters, including purchase, sale and cleanup of environmentally-impaired properties. 

Parsons’ Environment & Natural Resources practice Chairperson Michael A. Zody says, “Graham is a notable addition to Parsons’ outstanding environmental and natural resources legal team. Parsons has worked diligently, since our inception, to offer unsurpassed environmental legal services to our clients. We know that Graham will be a key resource in continuing that tradition as well as a key addition to our deep bench of practitioners, from junior to mid- and senior levels of practice.”
