Our experience »
The environment and the effect we have on it are high profile and emotive topics. Heightened public awareness of the environment and concern for its protection, has led to increasing regulation and compliance requirements resulting in a need for businesses to assess the impact of their operations on the environment, to understand their new obligations and to review and, where necessary, to modify their working practices.

We have over twenty years experience advising clients in relation to all stages of the waste cycle from collection, transfer and disposal, to sterilisation, incineration, landfill, recycling and reprocessing. We have also been closely involved in pioneering and successful ventures in the renewables sector, including the generation of heat, electricity and hydrogen from renewable sources, such as landfill gas and anaerobic digestion.

Our environment team »
Building on that practical experience we have established a cross practice environment team with the necessary resources to provide clients with comprehensive advice in this complex area of the law. In order to deliver best value to our clients, the environment team understands the need to provide sound legal advice allied to pragmatic commercial solutions. Chambers UK, A Client's Guide to the Legal Profession 2007, identifies BP Collins as a "Recommended Law Firm" in the South for the environment sector and acknowledges that the Environment Team provides "exceptional service to waste and energy clients in particular".
