Posse Herrera Ruiz’s environmental law team scores highly with clients for its ‘knowledge in environmental issues, and national and international regulatory trends’. Well versed across the full scope of advisory and contentious matters, the practice is particularly recognised for its experience in permitting procedures, environmental due diligence and administrative sanctioning proceedings. The firm’s dominant energy and natural resources offering is reflected in its client list, while it also acts for major names in the construction, transport, agrobusiness and manufacturing sectors, among others. Energy and natural resources partner Alvaro José Rodríguez co-heads the practice together with recently promoted (May 2024) environmental law specialist Erika Serrano. Junior associate Pablo Mejía  provides support to the environmental law, and energy and natural resources departments.
