Managing environmental impacts and considerations
Working with an environment lawyer who understands the specific aspects of environmental law relevant to the Cairns and North Queensland region will ensure you are aware of, and can act on, the environmental law issues relevant to your business. Environment law considerations are an increasingly important element of business planning and risk management. As well as increasing and complex legislation in this area, public and community expectations of the way in which businesses deal with environmental issues, are also factors that need to be considered when managing risk and corporate reputation.
We work with clients in all sectors and of all sizes to ensure that, whatever the nature of their business, they are aware of and comply with any environmental laws and regulations or concerns relevant to their operation.
Whether you are considering a new property development, establishing or purchasing a business, defending environmental offence allegations or dealing with environmental nuisance, our environment lawyers know and understand the regulatory obligations and how to meet and defend them.
