Mckean and Kerr LLP

Environmental

In recent years, the tort system (Rylands v. Fletcher, etc.) has increasingly been supplemented and replaced by statutory remedies. As well, changes in tort law have created potential new remedies. We assist our clients to understand how these statutes are administered by government agencies, processed by government tribunals or interpreted by the courts.

We have worked in the following areas of environmental law:

  • noise and vibration;
  • contamination of ground and surface water;
  • sewers and issues of regulatory negligence;
  • asbestos, UFFI, mould; and 
  • pollutant discharges (oil or chemical spills).
