Our diverse team is well-suited to advise clients on legal issues in the Natural Resources area.

The land and its resources are cornerstones that represent a way of life for many of our clients, while also being a means to bring economic development; a challenging balance to maintain, in some instances.

One of our lawyers is also a Registered Professional Forester in British Columbia, and our background and understanding of the surrounding regulatory frameworks of British Columbia’s natural resource sectors means that we can quickly understand the issues at hand so that we can assist with developing strategies and implementing initiatives to suit your needs.

- Land use planning;
- Hazardous and solid waste, air, water, and environmental due diligence;
