Guiding businesses through highly technical California consumer safety regulations, while advocating for our client's interests in enforcement actions.
Husch Blackwell has helped clients nationwide to navigate the complexities of California’s Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act, better known as California Proposition 65 or “Prop 65,” since its passage in 1986. We advise all participants in the supply chain – including product manufacturers, packagers, importers, suppliers, distributors, and retailers – regarding the law’s requirements, assessing risks, coordinating preventative audits, advising on reformulation, implementing warning label programs, and addressing supply chain and customer concerns for our clients. We also routinely represent clients that have received Prop 65 60-day notices of violation, defending and seeking dismissals, negotiating settlements, and working to obtain California court approvals of consent judgments
Prop 65 is a highly technical law subject to regular amendments and ever-changing guidance. The Husch Blackwell Prop 65 team has the experience and knowledge to help clients determine whether and how Prop 65 requirements apply to their products and operations. Our team can also advise on compliance program development and implementation.
