Environment


We have significant expertise in environmental law; advised, negotiated and litigated on behalf of companies and public sector organisations related to high-profile projects. We are one of the leading firms in the Netherlands in nuclear energy. Our partners also have broad experience in the civil law and criminal aspects of environmental law.

Our services cover a wide range of issues including:

  • noise pollution
  • air quality
  • soil contamination and decontamination
  • nature preservation aspects
  • waste processing
  • emissions trading
  • liability

We seek the highest quality standard in our work. Several of our lawyers are (assistant-)professor at law departments of the Universities of Amsterdam, Leiden and Utrecht.

Environmental legislation has traditionally been a purely national matter but the European dimension is becoming increasingly important, especially for companies that operate internationally. Our ability to provide cross-border solutions for these clients is greatly enhanced by our international network of top-tier law firms.
