Environmental performance is now a measure of success in the commercial world. Everyone using or dealing in property has to be aware of environmental issues.
Contaminated land and pollution issues have arisen in many development projects where we have given legal advice relating to environmental protection and liability for contamination.
In such cases we have advised on who is liable and on contracts and warranties/indemnities about environmental liabilities generally. This can form a significant part of any negotiation relating to a development project. Potentially, such environmental liabilities can impose a significant commitment on the liable party.
Our team will work with you and your other consultants to identify issues and provide solutions to problems that might arise.
