The 'technically excellent' team at Jeantet regularly assists international industrial companies with the operation of their sites, regulatory compliance and the management of environmental liability. Litigation related to environmental authorisations, building permits and protected species constitutes an additional area of focus. Leadership of the practice is shared between Hélène Gelas, who specialises in advisory and contentious public and environmental law, project finance and energy law; and Adrien Fourmon, who handles environmental audits and due diligence for renewables and infrastructure projects.
