Industry & ESG Factors

We assist industrial companies operating in complex regulatory environments and in sectors affected by the environmental and digital transformation, which require sophisticated legal solutions and innovative approaches to address growing challenges and risks.

Risks related to climate change and implementation of ESG standards are among the most damaging in terms of reputational impact. Market participants need to assess how their activities affect climate change and social welfare, their businesses, markets, and supply chains, and develop appropriate mitigation and adaptation strategies to avoid regulatory sanctions, climate change litigation, and instrumental reputational attacks. With a deep understanding of industry regulations and available administrative and judicial remedies, our professionals help clients mitigate ESG risks and capitalize on opportunities in the low-carbon economy.

We provide environmental, energy, and economic regulatory advice in matters of ESG, with a particular focus on the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, steel mills, cement plants, refineries, and paper mills, as well as energy-intensive companies in both manufacturing and services.

Our experience stems from the numerous industrial projects in which we have been involved in all phases of implementation, permitting, and regulatory processes. We understand environmental law, energy law, and regulatory issues that are particularly relevant to industrial manufacturing. We have experience in managing relationships with public and regulatory authorities, including controversial projects and negotiation of public contracts.
