About Lawrence P. Halprin
Lawrence Halprin is a nationally recognized figure in the fields of occupational safety, health, and chemical regulation, where he represents companies and trade associations on both federal and state levels. Drawing upon his firsthand experience in manufacturing and construction settings, as well as his background in engineering and finance, he has proven to be an invaluable resource for his clients. His expertise shines through in various areas, such as handling enforcement actions, offering compliance guidance, and critically evaluating rulemaking proposals and policy initiatives. He works closely with agencies like the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), the Chemical Safety Board, the Department of Treasury (particularly in matters related to Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) licensing and formula approval, ethanol, and Superfund excise taxes), and their corresponding state counterparts.
Lawrence's commitment extends to advocating for measures that enhance the effectiveness of regulatory agencies while ensuring they stay within their jurisdiction. He demonstrates this commitment through congressional testimony, active participation in agency rulemakings and policy initiatives, as well as legal actions brought on behalf of his clients. Lawrence is also a prolific writer and a sought-after speaker, covering a wide range of topics, including environmental issues, product stewardship, and health and safety management.
Before joining Keller and Heckman, Lawrence served as a clerk for the Honorable Charles R. Johnston of the U.S. Tax Court.
