LEEDigation

This post is simple.  I have a new term for the green building and legal industries:

LEEDigation. 

What is LEEDigation?  LEEDigation is green building litigation.  LEEDigation could involve disputes arising from green building certification.  LEEDigation could arise if a project fails to obtain government incentives or satisfy mandates for green building construction.  LEEDigation could simply result from improperly designed or constructed green building strategies. 

There you have it:  LEEDigation.  Feel free to start using it.  But don't forget about its origin!

Chris, I'm a LEED AP attorney in Kentucky and I'd love to use the term "LEEDigation" in an upcoming article to some of my client. I see that you've said to feel free to start using the term, but is there any particular way (format) you'd like me to attribute the term to you? Great site, Thanks! Ryan
