We regularly advise on the environmental aspects of acquisitions
and disposals, financings, flotations and major projects. Our
transactional services include legal environmental due diligence
and risk assessment, appointment and supervision of environmental
consultants, negotiation of environmental warranties, indemnities
and other contractual protection and advising on risk management
measures, including environmental insurance.
Our lawyers have recent experience advising on, for example:
- the aquisition of a portfolio of 22 petrol filling stations
including negotiating the funding of a package of sil and
groundwater remediation measures at each site, a ten-year
environmental insurance policy and a detailed environmental
indemnity
- acquistions and disposal of former municipal landfill
sites
- the purchase of a 133 MW CHP plant, water treatment plant and
other utilities infrastructure on a major chemicals and heavy
industrial business park
- the disposal of a leading UK retail chain of managed pubs,
restaurants and lodges involving over 900 separate sites
- a leveraged buyout of an international printing and packaging
business
