Environmental and Climate Change Disputes

The CMS Environmental and Climate Change Disputes Team advises clients on a variety of disputes arising from the changing regulatory landscape.

Our market leading lawyers have extensive experience representing clients on civil claims based in private nuisance, follow-on actions under group litigation orders, class actions, multi-jurisdictional litigation, technology disputes and reputation management. We regularly deal with MPs, liaison and select committees, action groups and PR companies.

Our experience of misrepresentation claims will be invaluable in handling environmental impact claims.
