The special supplement focuses on trends and updates in the legal profession and spotlights attorneys that have "exhibited noteworthy achievements" over the last two years.

"Tyson and Nicole are both incredibly talented attorneys and have consistently proven their ability to provide the firm's clients with the highest degree of strategy and service," says Managing Partner Margaret Sohagi.

Tyson Sohagi's practice focuses upon environmental law, land use and planning law, the Coastal Act, the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), the Public Trust Doctrine, and Election Law. Sohagi received a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from UC Berkeley that assists with SLG's review of issues involving complex legal and technical issues. He advises public clients on complex matters such as infrastructure projects (transmission lines, port facilities, airport facilities, intermodal and on-dock railroad facilities, utility plants), mass transit fees, general plans, and specific plans, specific development proposals, and other land use issues. Many of his projects have involved complicated issues pertaining to historic resources, water supply, seawater intrusion, groundwater, water quality, stormwater, wastewater, cultural resources, air quality, greenhouse gases, hazardous materials, noise, and geology. Sohagi also has substantial experience related to transportation analysis, including operational analysis involving airports (including internal airport circulation), intermodal railways facilities, development projects, construction work, county, and city-wide programmatic analysis, as well as non-vehicular analysis, including multi-modal analysis utilizing new Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) metrics.
