Our environmental lawyers can help your business manage risks and comply with the complexities of legislation. If things go wrong, we can help you get your business back into compliance and apply our expertise to assist you with regulator challenges.
As environmental lawyers, we can undertake due diligence, manage risks in all types of transactions and projects, advise on the interpretation of and compliance with environmental regulations, as well as advising on contentious matters.
When undertaking corporate or real estate transactions, businesses should consider whether there are any significant environmental issues for which they may be responsible. We offer sensible and practical advice on how environmental risks can be minimised or avoided.
Relationships with regulators are critical to the ongoing success of your business and we can help you to maintain them. Compliance is critical to avoid enforcement action and potentially damaging publicity. This is particularly important if you are seeking to use your environmental credentials to differentiate yourself from your competitors. We can help manage your environmental risk, ongoing compliance and other engagement with regulators.
We have a successful track record in working with clients and regulators to prevent enforcement action being taken. Where formal enforcement action cannot be prevented, we advise on all aspects of defending environmental investigations and prosecutions.
