Environmental law - enforcement
When facing environmental sanction, you still have options. We can help you consider alternatives to prosecution, challenge a civil penalty or present a compelling defence or persuasive mitigation.
Whatever the size of your organisation or the sector you work in, you'll be subject to a raft of environmental legislation. Even homeowners can find themselves inadvertently falling foul of some of the toughest environmental standards in the world.
Where enforcement or sanction is likely, we can help you understand the approach the regulator will take and advise you on the merits of alternatives to formal court proceedings.
We work constructively with the regulator, recognising the important job that they do, while at the same time ensuring that they abide by their own policies and obligations.
