Environment
Environmental regulation has continued to evolve and mature in the Region.
As a result, there is continually growing need for strategic counseling, compliance programs and litigation expertise. Our work in this area is handled by lawyers who combine environmental law expertise with extensive corporate or litigation experience. We help our clients to manage liabilities arising from current activities as well as legacy conditions. We work with them to structure transactions and financings that minimize liability risks and maximize the tax and other financial benefits available under applicable laws to purchasers, sellers and lenders.
Our lawyers also handle negotiations with regulatory authorities to resolve environmental issues, insurance coverage litigation and litigation regarding contractual indemnities and sharing agreements. We serve our clients as company-wide coordinating counsel on environmental matters being handled locally.
