The environmental group at Greenberg Traurig, S.C. is well-placed to handle mandates relating to environmental and regulatory permitting, contaminated sites, waste management, and air and water pollution. Additional areas of expertise include infrastructure, real estate and projects, as well as environmental due diligence for M&A transactions. The group is regularly instructed by clients in the oil-and-gas, food and beverage, healthcare, renewables and banking segments. Erick Hernández Gallego steers the practice and routinely advises corporations on environmental impact and risk matters, the financing of green projects and emissions reductions. Additional key contacts include senior associate Luis Jorge Akle, who focuses on environmental compliance and renewable energy projects. A recent highlight saw the group advise Vive Energía on its environmental and regulatory obligations in a series of renewable energy projects, including an offshore wind farm and a green hydrogen plant.
