Advisory and Licensing

The environmental and agro-forestry sector is characterized by complex and constantly evolving regulations. We provide consulting on legal and regulatory compliance applicable to holdings and investments, ensuring alignment with national and European environmental standards.

We manage demanding environmental licensing procedures for various industrial sectors, as well as environmental impact assessment processes, ensuring projects are legally viable and sustainable.

We assist owners and investors in structuring agricultural and forestry businesses, handling land management, land use zoning, and public incentives in the sector.

We draft contractual terms for private or shared management and economic exploitation for Common Land Committees (Comissões de Baldios).
