Industry Expertise
As an attorney licensed to provide legal advice in all areas, I handle all legal questions of medium-sized companies, especially in the industrial sector. My work is focussed on environmental law, a special field of administrative law. I have particular expertise and experience in the following legal areas and industries:
Areas of Legal Practice
Many cases are subject to regulation in several areas of law. Handling them requires not only detailed knowledge of the ostensible questions, but also an interdisciplinary overview of potentially affected issues:
- Zoning
- Air and noise pollution
- Circular economy
- Water protection
- Environmental criminal law
- Nature conservation
- Soil contamination
- Emissions trading
- Energy
- Data protection
Industries
Each industry has its own characteristic footprint and repertoire of typical legal issues. Industry-specific experience enables me to asses quickly and reliably how to achieve the desired legal certainty:
- Waste treatment
- Real estate development
- Public water supply
- Livestock farming
- Recycling
- Mining
- Power generation and transmission
- Chemicals
Proceedings
Most environmental law cases are subject to public (administrative) law. Potential proceedings include :
- Administrative procedures
- Plan approval
- Freedom of Information Act requests
- Public participation
- Litigation
- Interim relief
