Environmental
The impact of environmental and climate law is wide ranging, far-reaching and fast-evolving.
The relationship between government, businesses and other organisations, in relation to environmental and wider economic and societal concerns, is increasingly complex.
Our team of specialist environmental and climate lawyers guide both public and private sector clients through these regulatory, commercial and political changes. We understand the Green Agenda and associated trends, risks and opportunities, and use that knowledge to help our clients to develop effective strategies.
