Environmental Law

A service that helps businesses comply with environmental laws and avoid penalties.

Legal Support for Businesses Facing Environmental Investigations

Environmental regulations in the UK place strict obligations on companies. With increasing scrutiny from the Environment Agency (EA) and local authorities, businesses must ensure compliance with environmental permits, pollution control measures, and waste management laws.

Failing to comply can result in significant fines, enforcement action, or even criminal prosecution. Whether you're dealing with allegations of pollution, contaminated land, or planning consent breaches, expert legal guidance is essential to protect your business and reputation.

      Understanding Adjudication

      Adjudication is a vital dispute resolution process, particularly in the construction and commercial sectors. Introduced under the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996, adjudication provides a fast-track process to resolve disputes without resorting to lengthy and expensive court proceedings.

      The decision of the adjudicator is binding unless and until it is overturned by litigation, arbitration, or agreement.
