Environmental and planning law

Environmental law is extremely broad. This makes it all the more important that your legal partner is well versed in all aspects of it. In the context of spatial planning, think, for example, of environmental plans, environmental visions and environmental permits.

But also consider land policy and preferential rights under the Environment Act, environmental law and environmental permits, and issues of nature protection and water. We also have extensive experience in environmental law due diligence for mergers and acquisitions.

Environment and Planning Act

On January 1, 2024, the Environment Act entered into force. We have long been advising on the legal and practical implications for area development.
