BrookStreet des Roches works with clients to deal with complex and ever-changing rules and regulations affecting their environmental obligations in transactional and operational situations.

What we do

We have extensive experience in providing environmental advice and support services across a broad range of real estate projects and transactions, ensuring our clients are adequately informed and protected against the impact of environmental regulation. With experience across a range of transactional situations and ongoing operations, we work with sellers, buyers, tenants, funders, operators and manufacturers.

• Acquisitions and disposals: we advise on due diligence requirements when preparing sites for sale or when acquiring them, then advise on the implications of the findings and how to protect our clients' positions in terms of contractual obligations and indemnities.

• Management: we have extensive knowledge of the regulatory frameworks governing activities which have an environmental impact (including waste, food processing, power generation and usage) and advise on prosecutions for breaches of environmental regulations.

• Renewables and climate change: we advise on clean energy projects and the impact of legislation (such as the Carbon Reduction Commitment) on large operators and manufacturers.

• Construction: we advise on the potential environmental aspects of construction projects and upon the need to incorporate protection where required.

• Disputes: we advise in disputes between landowners, operators and the authorities charged with enforcing environmental regulations.

Our aim is to ensure that our clients are aware of potential environmental issues and their responsibilities, making sure their obligations are understood, accepted and dealt with and that their interests are protected.
