Environment and communities

We partner with you from project inception through to completion, proactively identifying and managing risk, anticipating regulatory challenges, and effectively addressing stakeholder concerns. Environment challenges can significantly impact the commercial viability of projects, and we focus on practical, strategic solutions that keep projects on track and within budget. 

We advise on large-scale, high-stakes projects across energy, infrastructure, mining and urban development, integrating experience in land access, regulatory review and approvals, environmental law, native title and indigenous cultural heritage, carbon markets and compliance. By collaborating with our real estate, corporate, litigation and projects teams, along with technical consultants, we provide seamless, commercially driven solutions, and leverage real-world experience delivering and defending projects as well as responding to major incidents and crises involving multijurisdictional complexities. 

Our credibility representing clients before regulatory bodies, in enforcement proceedings, remediation and in litigation enables us to streamline environmental assessments, accelerate clean-ups, resolve disputes and acquire permits efficiently. We offer strategic advice regarding land use, zoning, environmental impact reviews, site assessment and remediation, workplace health and safety concerns, and the environmental aspects of real estate deals, corporate transactions, financings, bankruptcies and restructurings.
