Environmental Ethics

Environmental and related natural resource issues are truly global in nature, transcending borders and requiring multinational responses. Environmental regimes are constantly evolving, as both developed and developing countries seek to meet the impacts of a global economy on their air, land, water and public health. Companies operating in multiple jurisdictions need the help of lawyers with broad experience across regions and continents to navigate this changing landscape.

Our lawyers have broad experience with environmental laws across the globe.

Companies face increasing regulatory and public pressure to address the environmental impact of their business operations, often in multiple jurisdictions. We deal with environmental issues, including project development, impact assessment, permitting, climate change, product life cycle analysis, due diligence and risk management. We are ready to listen and respond to all your environmental needs wherever and whatever they may be.

Our lawyers will work with you to plan for compliance with changing regulations and standards around the world. We will guide you in seeking resolution of enforcement actions, defending permits and pursuing legal remedies where necessary. Rely on our help and advice to take a proactive stance in assessing and managing liability from production to disposal, for products you manufacture, or assets you acquire or sell. When major incidents do occur, look to our lawyers for strategic management counsel and representation.

To achieve success, companies must integrate social responsibility practices into their business operations. With a wide range of regional experience, our team helps you determine how your business operations intersect with human rights, environmental conservation, corruption and myriad other issues. Together, we’ll develop corporate social responsibility strategies so your business can operate smoothly in any part of the world.
