Stephen Shergold
Partner
Stephen Shergold leads the Environment and Safety team in London
and is a partner in the Firm's Energy, Infrastructure and Project
Finance department. Specializing in environment and health and
safety law, Stephen advises clients on incident response,
day-to-day compliance matters and liability risk
management. These issues are relevant to clients on an
operational level and also in the context of projects and
transactions, reflecting this, Stephen's practice is an even
balance between both. He regularly advises on pollution
liability regimes, process authorizations and environmental
permitting, waste law, renewable energy law, international climate
change mechanisms, resource efficiency mechanisms, nuisance and
negligence, habitat protection, health and safety law and product
liability. Stephen's practice has a particular focus on the waste,
oil and gas (upstream and downstream), mining, land remediation,
clean-tech, insurance, and power sectors. In addition to
advising private companies, Stephen has specific expertise in
drafting regulatory frameworks and statutory instruments in both
the EU and emerging
markets.
Stephen is a member of the United Kingdom Environmental Law
Association and the Environmental Services Association. He is
recognized as a Band One Leader in the field of Environmental Law
by the Chambers Guide to the Legal Profession.
