Environmental protection laws
The environmental protection department at the office of Yosef Yeshuron & Co., under the management of attorney Oren Katz, is a unique department in the attorney market in Israel, which in recent years has provided exclusive legal service and support to the Ministry of Environmental Protection, which is the central and main enforcement body in Israel.
The Ministry of Environmental Protection outlines the environmental policy, promotes legislation on the subject and provides the current framework in the field. In light of the experience of the environmental protection department, it can be noted that our office participates in a variety of issues and procedures that are not found in every office that represents clients in this field.
Our office represented the Ministry of Environmental Protection in a variety of environmental issues - including environmental litigation - in the scope of hundreds of legal cases. The firm has led significant and principled cases in the field of environmental law, and promotes both environmental and social changes, as part of this legal practice. Our firm has experience in representation in criminal proceedings, as well as in administrative enforcement proceedings in the field of environmental protection, alongside private law. This is how the firm has developed expertise in a wide variety of environmental fields, including air pollution, soil pollution, water and sea pollution, treatment of hazardous materials, planning and construction issues, noise and odor nuisances, and more.
Today, the firm's rich experience in the field of environmental protection is at the disposal of its clients.
