Kansas City, MO (November 15, 2024) — Lathrop GPM Partner Ally Cunningham has once again been named to the Missouri Lawyers Media “POWER List” for Environmental & Energy Law. This is the third consecutive year she has been named to this list.
Cunningham was named for her work representing companies in odor nuisance matters, including the notable successful dismissal of a class action involving approximately 10,000 homes in Texas alleging property damage and physical injuries due to odor and emissions from a landfill. Cunningham manages a national practice with a focus on the areas of environmental, toxic tort and other crisis-related litigation. She regularly advises clients on compliance and permitting under federal and state environmental laws and regulations.
Cunningham received the Missouri Lawyers Media Up & Coming Award and the Top Legal Innovations Award in emerging practice areas for her work with PFAS, both in 2021. She serves as an author for the firm’s PFAS blog, “PFAS Playbook.” Cunningham also was selected among The Best Lawyers in America® “Ones to Watch” in 2021-2022.
The “Power List – Environmental & Energy Law” features the top attorneys in Missouri who handle class actions and other toxic tort defense matters as identified by Missouri Lawyer Media.
