Kate Campbell, MGKF Partner and Podcast Host

Hi and welcome to Manko Gold Katcher & Fox’s “Plugged In” podcast.  I’m your host, Kate Campbell, a partner at Manko Gold, where I spend most of my days practicing environmental litigation and learning from my tremendously talented colleagues who deal with just about every aspect of environmental law.  For anyone who touches environmental legal issues, you know they are complex, dense, and rarely, if ever, short and to the point.  This podcast is our attempt to break through this complexity and provide you with key insights and a basic understanding of current developments in our field, in ten minutes or less.  So, grab your coffee, your dog leash, your running shoes, or your car keys, and join us to get “Plugged In” to what’s new in the world of environmental law.
