Environmental Law
Bruchou & Funes de Rioja has strengthened its Environmental Law practice to meet the needs of its clients by creating a specific practice area and incorporating specialists with extensive experience in the field.
We are committed to helping our clients structure comprehensive solutions and develop transition strategies towards a sustainable future while facing the dynamic challenges of their businesses.
Environmental issues have become one of the most important topics on both the public and corporate agenda in Argentina and globally. Today, these aspects are central in business decision-making processes, especially in relation to environmental compliance and the reduction and elimination of environmental contingencies in productive activities and commercial transactions. This has had a direct impact on the environmental aspects that are required and expected in the provision of legal services.
In recent years, there has been an increase in the number and complexity of environmental conflicts due to the proliferation of regulations at the national, provincial, and municipal levels, increased litigation, improvements in public regulatory bodies, and greater citizen control. Therefore, companies increasingly require specialized legal advice in this area.
Dr. Pablo Crimer leads the Environmental Law practice, as well as the ESG Climate Action and Sustainable Business Platform. With a distinguished career of over 17 years advising companies in the environmental sector, Dr. Crimer has addressed the most diverse issues of environmental law, from the analysis and prevention of environmental liability, audits, and management of environmental matters in both administrative and judicial settings to the development of environmental issues related to complex business dealings, such as joint ventures, mergers and acquisitions (M&A), and project financing.
The Environmental Law team works together with experts from other practice areas such as mining law, oil and gas, energy, administrative law, corporate law, banking and capital markets, and litigation, among others.
