Environmental & Energy

Protecting the environment is one of the most important challenges in the world today. Companies face increasingly complex regulations and ethical pressures to mitigate the impacts of climate change, air and water pollution, waste, deforestation, and the loss of biodiversity. With this spotlight on the environment, the demand to make energy more efficient, sustainable, and eco-friendly is growing around the world. Energy companies must continually keep up with complicated rules and regulations as new technologies and issues emerge every day.

Realistic. Strategic. Creative.

These three words perfectly describe our Environmental Law Group.

Realistic because we have a knack for turning complex legal issues into succinct and practical business solutions. We know companies in this sector need real-world advice based on the big picture. We’re upfront and always deliver realistic projections on timing and costs.

Strategic because there are a lot of diverse and challenging issues facing companies and some are worth the fight and some are not. We know the difference.

Creative because the dynamic and constantly evolving nature of this sector demands lawyers who have vision. No matter how complex the issue or how tight the situation, we’ll find a solution.

Success requires experience.

We are equally experienced and forward-thinking – staying current across all sectors of the energy industry, including wind, thermal, waste energy, hydropower, nuclear, biomass, biofuels, tidal and solar energy.
