An integrated and crosscutting approach.
Environmental Law is a complex and multidisciplinary topic. The extensive experience of our professionals and the close cooperation of the Firm’s departments, allows us to offer complete and cross-practice assistance.

The Department offers widespread expertise in environmental litigation in administrative or civil jurisdiction and supports clients and their advisors in criminal proceedings relating to environmental issues.
