Katherine Reilly's practice in the San Francisco office of Beveridge & Diamond focuses on environmental compliance counseling, transactional work, and land use permitting. She represents a range of clients in land transactions and development permitting, from the due diligence phase through structuring the transaction, planning, and entitling of a development despite natural resources and toxics constraints. Ms. Reilly's land use practice concentrates on brownfields redevelopment, in which remediation of contamination must be negotiated with regulatory agencies, planned, and coordinated with a development so as to yield maximum value for the client without slowing the development time table. She also counsels clients in environmental compliance at the federal and state level, with particular emphasis on the federal Clean Water Act and related California statutory and regulatory requirements.

Before joining Beveridge & Diamond in 1996, Ms. Reilly worked as a law clerk with the California Department of Justice, Natural Resources Section, and as a legal intern at the Environmental Defense Fund. She attended Stanford Law School, where she served as executive editor of the Stanford Environmental Law Journal. She completed her undergraduate studies at Yale University, where she was a Harry S. Truman Scholar.

Ms. Reilly is admitted to practice in all California state courts, the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, and the United States District Courts for the Northern, Eastern, Central, and Southern Districts of California.
