Environmental Law
As environmental concern grows, so too does its importance for rural businesses. There is growing recognition of the positive role farming can play in protecting and enhancing the environment.
We act for many conservation bodies, estates and farming businesses. We continuously monitor developments in environmental law and advise our clients on how to comply with existing and new legislation. We regularly write articles and speak at seminars on a range of environmental issues.
Working with other professionals such as land agents, we provide clear, practical advice on environmental issues such as
- Abandoned vehicles
- Asbestos
- Contaminated land
- Environmental impact assessment
- Forestry
- Landfill
- Minerals
- Nature conservation
- Renewable Energy
- Use of water resources
- Waste
- Water pollution and sewage disposal
