Betsy C. Moedritzer

Betsy has a wide-ranging environmental practice in Stinson's broad Energy, Environmental, Mining and Transportation group. While she primarily focuses on environmental regulatory compliance, enforcement, and safety, she also assists clients in litigation involving environmental and natural resources, as well as safety and international matters.

As part of her environmental practice, Betsy routinely advises clients on multi-media issues, including compliance with state and local environmental laws and regulations, and federal matters under the Clean Water Act, RCRA, CERCLA, and TSCA. Given her regulatory expertise, she is also adept at handling safety matters, including defending OSHA citations and assisting in emergency response to accidents, spills and releases.

She also has experience in the transportation and utility sectors, and includes time in her practice for children’s products advisory work. And, with the global nature of many of our clients, Betsy helps clients navigate compliance with U.S. laws surrounding imports and exports, namely goods, software, and technology.

Across all practice areas, Betsy leverages her background in journalism and thrives when navigating the complexities of the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and state open records laws. Betsy also consistently tracks emerging issues, such as PFAS laws, developments, and hot cases in both the environmental and consumer product spheres, and regularly writes and presents on these issues.

She joins the firm after spending two summers as a Stinson summer associate where she gained valuable experience assisting in matters relating to environmental compliance, business litigation, and labor and employment law. She also served as the 2021 PNC Bank Legal Council on Legal Diversity Scholar where she regularly reviewed and edited intercreditor and escrow agreements and drafted indemnity agreements.

Betsy is proficient in French and served as an English Teaching Assistant in France prior to her legal career.

Outside of her legal practice, Betsy enjoys cooking, baking and barre.
