Jeremy Brust is senior counsel at Tao Rossini, APC. Mr. Brust’s practice focuses on environmental and land use law, facilities construction, and real estate development. He works with public agencies and private entities in all areas of land use and construction, with a particular emphasis on the California Environmental Quality Act.

Mr. Brust has advised and represented local, regional, and international clients in a wide range of settings, and is well-versed in the land use decision-making process.

Mr. Brust has devoted a considerable amount of time to pro bono matters.

Manuel Award for Pro Bono Legal Services by the California State Bar in 2012 and 2013.
