Principle

To either assist a company or a local authority in the event of an environmental litigation.

Our means

• To clearly understand the nature of the prejudice suffered as well as its economic implications both to the company and the local authority;

• To quantify the prejudice in terms of :

• Additional costs, either already or about to be engaged: pollution cleaning, necessary investments to avoid pollution
• Damage to brand image: negative media repercussions, brand image restoration costs, promotional investments…
