Recent experience
The future in my specialty is

Being at the forefront of innovation is where the future of my specialization lies. I believe that climate change and environmental degradation is the biggest challenge of our times. All EU Member States have committed to turning Europe into the first climate neutral continent by 2050. Today, the transition to renewable energy and sustainable business development is not just a beautiful aspiration. The Green Deal and other EU legislation has set the blueprint for dramatic transformational change affecting all economic sectors. However, green transitioning does not need to be frightening. Having a professional lawyer one step ahead of the curve as a strategic partner is the key to embracing the future.
