The Environmental team at Wolf Theiss Poland is a trusted advisor to clients seeking guidance on high‑risk and strategically important environmental matters. The team continues to expand its regulatory capabilities, particularly in circular economy, chemicals, electrical and electronic equipment, batteries, waste management and packaging, alongside sophisticated environmental risk and liability assessments. Our practice offers genuinely comprehensive support, acting as a one‑stop advisor across M&A transactions, energy transition projects, decarbonisation strategies, industrial operations and regulatory compliance. We represent clients in complex disputes with environmental authorities, including Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA)‑related litigation and illegal waste shipments. Our lawyers have developed strong, sector‑specific expertise in circular economy regulation, including waste management, recovery and recycling, international waste shipments, by‑products, end‑of‑waste, packaging and packaging waste, waste electrical and electronic equipment, batteries and extended producer responsibility. We have also supported legislative developments related to deposit return systems and have advised on key EU regulatory developments, including the EUDR, CSRD, CBAM, PPWR, REACH and broader energy transition and decarbonisation initiatives.
