Mr. Nestrud's regulatory practice includes air, water, solid and hazardous waste, mining, right to know, employee safety, hazardous substance remediation and cost recovery. His litigation focus includes commercial litigation as well as toxic tort litigation, environmental property damage and nuisance litigation.

For three years Mr. Nestrud was retained as special counsel to the Arkansas Department of Pollution Control and Ecology (now the Arkansas Department of Environmental Quality), and as a private practitioner, Mr. Nestrud has represented clients in proceedings before the Arkansas Department of Environmental Quality and its Commission, the Arkansas Department of Health, the Environmental Protection Agency, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the Environmental Appeals Board, as well as numerous municipal and county planning and permitting authorities.

As a consultant to trade associations and to individual clients, Mr. Nestrud has assisted with development of administrative rules and policies, and is a registered lobbyist with the Arkansas legislature. In addition to his private practice, Mr. Nestrud is a frequent speaker on emerging environmental issues in Arkansas. Mr. Nestrud is the editor of the "Arkansas Right to Know Manual," the Arkansas guide for compliance with SARA Community Right to Know, and the comprehensive "Handbook on Environmental Laws in Arkansas", which is part of the State Environmental Law Handbook Series published by Government Institutes. He is included in The Best Lawyers in America and Chambers USA as an environmental attorney, and was recently named by his peers as one of the best environmental attorneys in Arkansas in The Arkansas Times.
