Main Areas of Practice > Food and Water Safety

Our clients include foodstuff purchasers and suppliers, producers, packagers, handlers, distributors, transporters, logistics intermediaries and their related insurance interests.

We advise clients on issues that arise during the food production chain - from initial production right through to delivery to and consumption by the end consumer. We deal with problems involving microbiological and chemical contamination, hormones, pesticides, disease, additives, irradiation, genetically modified foods, supplements, product recalls, product tampering, improper handling improper growth conditions and issues relating to the transit-worthiness of foodstuffs.

Our lawyers have expertise relating to drinking water production, treatment, contamination and distribution. We also regularly advise clients on damage caused by water to humans and property. This includes floods and sewer issues, erosion, storm damage, and pollution.
