Baldwin & Callen, PLLC

The Baldwin & Callen, PLLC law firm works tirelessly to achieve clients’ legal goals, while honoring our shared commitment to preserving New Hampshire’s precious natural and built environment. We represent our clients with passion, integrity and skill. We design legal solutions consistent with both private property rights and sustainable stewardship of our land and natural resources.

We love New Hampshire, for its breathtaking natural beauty and for the opportunities it offers its citizens to connect with, and benefit from, its wealth of natural resources. We have worked to protect and preserve this natural legacy since long before it was popular to be “green”. Our clients include landowners and developers who want to do it right, individuals who want to pass their legacy on to their heirs with minimum “shrinkage”, and neighbors who want to protect our streams, lakes, wetlands, forests, fields, soil, and air, and their neighborhoods, from development done wrong. Our commitment to a healthy and sustainable New Hampshire is reflected in the way we approach our work, and in the way in which we treat both our clients and our opponents. Experience and dedication, to both our clients and our natural world, helps us achieve successful and satisfying results.

Our practice focuses primarily on environmental and land use law, including representing clients before municipal land use boards: planning boards and zoning boards of adjustment. We also actively advise clients regarding land protection mechanisms, conservation easements and historic preservation. Some of our environmental cases have addressed issues related to toxic torts, hazardous spills and contamination, timber trespass, and boundary disputes.
