Deutschland > Öffentliches Recht > Umwelt- und Planungsrecht
Die umwelt- und planungsrechtliche Praxis von CBH Rechtsanwälte fokussiert sich auf Infrastruktur- und städtebauliche Entwicklungsprojekte, was nicht zuletzt der engen Verzahnung mit der Baurechts- und Immobilienpraxis geschuldet ist. Dementsprechend wird man oftmals im Rahmen von Quartiersentwicklungen und Immobilientransaktionen mandatiert. Zudem umfasst die Mandatsarbeit mit der Energiewende im Zusammenhang stehende Projekte, wie LNG-Terminals, Offshore-Wind- und Solarparks sowie Wasserstoffnetze. Praxisleiter Stefan Rappen setzt ähnliche Beratungsschwerpunkte und betreut routinemäßig die Planung und den Betrieb von Energieanlagen und Infrastrukturvorhaben.
Germany > Public sector > Planning and environment
CBH Rechtsanwälte‘s environmental and planning practice focuses on infrastructure and urban development projects, which is not least due to close cooperation with its construction and real estate practice. Accordingly, the group is frequently instructed to assist with district developments and real estate transactions. Other matters include energy transition projects, such as LNG terminals, offshore wind and solar parks, and hydrogen networks. Practice head Stefan Rappen sets similar consulting priorities and routinely oversees the planning and operation of energy plants and infrastructure projects.
