Bergeson & Campbell

What Bergeson & Campbell does

Bergeson & Campbell, P.C. (B&C®) is a Washington, D.C.-based law firm founded in 1990 that specializes in chemical product regulation, approval, compliance, and policy across U.S. and international jurisdictions. The firm represents chemical manufacturers, processors, agricultural chemical companies, biotechnology firms, cosmetics and personal care companies, and trade associations before the EPA, FDA, OSHA, Congress, ECHA, and other global regulators, with practice areas spanning TSCA, FIFRA, REACH, biotechnology, nanotechnology, PFAS, food contact substances, and product stewardship. B&C operates as a multi-platform professional services firm that pairs core legal representation with two wholly owned affiliated entities — The Acta Group, providing global scientific and regulatory consulting, and B&C Consortia Management, L.L.C. (BCCM), providing administrative and support services to industry consortia.

The firm's underlying platform is built on a specialized knowledge stack rather than proprietary software: a content ecosystem of branded blogs (TSCAblog®, FIFRAblog®, Product Stewardship Blog™, Biobased and Sustainable Chemicals Blog, Nano and Other Emerging Technologies Blog, Public Policy and Regulation Blog®), the All Things Chemical® podcast, an on-demand webinar library, monthly federal regulatory memoranda, an annual 2026 Forecast publication, and the TSCA Tutor® and FIFRA Tutor® online training platforms priced at $100 per one-hour module and $200 per two-hour module. Technical differentiation rests on staff credentials — six former senior EPA officials, eight Ph.D.-credentialed scientists covering organic chemistry, toxicology, and exposure science, plus DABT- and RQAP-GLP-credentialed staff — rather than on software IP or data assets.

The business model is professional services fee-for-service for legal and consulting work (quote-based, no public pricing), supplemented by self-serve recurring revenue from online training modules and recurring managed-services revenue from consortia administration. Distribution is overwhelmingly direct and enterprise-led, anchored by thought-leadership content, industry conference participation (including co-organization of the annual TSCA Reform Conference with the Environmental Law Institute and GWU), and global delivery through The Acta Group's offices in Washington D.C., Manchester, and Brussels with partner networks in Asia and South America.

Direct peers

• Wiley Rein LLP: Wiley Rein's environmental and chemical regulation practice represents clients before EPA on TSCA, FIFRA, and related chemical control statutes. Its focused chemical-regulatory bench and Washington D.C. base align with B&C's positioning.
• Beveridge & Diamond, P.C. Beveridge & Diamond is a national law firm with one of the largest dedicated environmental and chemical regulatory practices in the U.S., serving manufacturers and trade associations on TSCA, FIFRA, RCRA, and CERCLA matters — directly comparable to B&C's core practice area and client base.
• Hunton Andrews Kurth LLP: Hunton Andrews Kurth has a longstanding chemical, pesticide, and product-regulation practice advising manufacturers and trade associations on EPA matters. Its combination of regulatory depth and broader energy/environmental portfolio makes it a close peer to B&C.
• Steptoe & Johnson LLP: Steptoe's environmental and chemical regulatory practice represents chemical manufacturers before EPA and on TSCA, FIFRA, and international chemical control matters, with cross-border capabilities. It is a relevant comparable for B&C's regulatory and government affairs work.
• Keller and Heckman LLP: Keller and Heckman is a boutique regulatory law firm with deep practices in chemical, food and drug, packaging, and pesticide regulation under TSCA, FIFRA, and FDA frameworks. Its specialized regulatory focus and scientific staff make it a direct comparable to B&C's chemical-law niche.

Broad incumbents

• Morgan, Lewis & Bockius LLP: Morgan Lewis fields a regulatory practice spanning chemicals, pesticides, and product safety inside a global full-service firm. Its broad platform and cross-border reach make it a relevant incumbent peer for large multinational chemical clients.
• Sidley Austin LLP: Sidley has a sizable environmental and chemical regulatory practice within a much larger global full-service platform, advising chemical manufacturers on TSCA, REACH, and product-stewardship matters. It is a broad incumbent competing for the same enterprise clients B&C serves.
• Hogan Lovells US LLP: Hogan Lovells combines chemical regulatory work with global product stewardship, REACH, and life-sciences practices. As a broad incumbent with deep global reach, it competes for the same multinational chemical manufacturer mandates as B&C.
• Eversheds Sutherland (US) LLP: Eversheds Sutherland has an established chemicals, pesticides, and product regulation practice integrated into a global legal platform. Its combined regulatory and corporate capability positions it as a broad incumbent peer.

Emerging players

• Gradient Analytics: Gradient Analytics is a scientific consulting firm providing toxicology, exposure, and risk-assessment support that frequently intersects with TSCA and FIFRA submissions. As an emerging scientific-services peer, it competes for some of the same technical work that B&C and Acta deliver to chemical manufacturers.
