Energy & Natural Resources
As a crucial component of our sustainable future, the Environment sector encompasses a vast value chain, from resource and waste management in all areas of the circular economy to the integration of environmental issues into industrial and infrastructure projects at the design, construction and operation stages.
Essential sectors
UGGC Avocats’ teams assist their clients with projects that have an environmental footprint, from design to completion, as well as with the development and implementation of strategies for discontinuing activities or converting sites.
Similarly, as part of the operation of their activities, we assist our clients with issues relating to the management of hazardous products and waste, and with the administrative follow-up of their environmental permits.
Finally, we represent our clients in their dealings with the authorities and in litigation before all courts. This litigation practice plays a particularly important role in environmental matters, in that it enables us, at the advisory stage, to better understand and limit risks.
Support
Our environmental law team advises and represents all public and private players faced with these issues, drawing on the firm’s other areas of expertise, particularly public law, finance and corporate law.
Similarly, the environmental law team works closely with the other departments on their operations, particularly in connection with the development of major infrastructure projects, the sale of companies or branches of activity, complex real estate projects, and so on.
This cross-functional approach enables UGGC Avocats to offer its clients a range of services in which environmental issues are fully integrated into the analysis of its clients’ projects.
