Tyler Franklin Named to the Environmental Business Council of New England’s Ocean and Coastal Resources Committee

Rubin Rudman is pleased to announce that Tyler M. Franklin, a partner in the firm’s Environmental and Land Use Group, has joined the Leadership Team of the Environmental Business Council of New England’s Ocean and Coastal Resources Committee.

Franklin is known for his work advising clients on environmental, land use, and real estate matters. He represents developers, corporations, and homeowners in navigating the complex regulatory terrain of project permitting, waterfront development, and environmental enforcement. Many of his matters involve high-value properties on the Cape and Islands where his guidance is especially valued for addressing evolving coastal resiliency regulations, floodplain standards, and stormwater management. He regularly appears before zoning boards, planning boards, conservation commissions, and state agencies and coordinates closely with environmental consultants, engineers, and other stakeholders.

Before becoming a lawyer, Franklin worked in hazardous waste remediation at the New Bedford Harbor Superfund Site, which sparked his lasting interest in environmental science, law, and policy. That hands-on experience continues to inform his practice today.

He is listed in Boston Magazine’s Top Lawyers List for Land Use/Environmental (2023-2025) and Lawdragon’s 500 Leading Environmental Lawyers (2026). He received his JD, cum laude, from Vermont Law School and his B.A. from Wesleyan University.
