Environmental

Torys was among the first firms in Canada to develop a dedicated environmental practice, which has evolved in close step with the rest of the firm. We are regularly part of corporate transaction teams, assisting with liability assessments as well as all other aspects of deals where environmental and occupational health and safety (EHS) law expertise adds value. We advise proponents and other corporations on the full range of EHS regulatory compliance, consumer protection, permitting and environmental/sustainability management-related matters. We also assist clients in all forms of dispute resolution with respect to administrative, civil and regulatory matters, including a substantial defence practice. We offer clients a strong commercially minded perspective informed by our understanding of every major sector, including power, infrastructure, oil and gas, mining, pulp and paper, chemical and petrochemical, steel, recycling, water and waste water, manufacturing, financial institutions, technology, and real estate.
