Matheson is delighted to once again be recognised in The Legal 500 EMEA Green Guide 2024 as a top firm in Ireland for our role in the green transition.
The guide is the first worldwide to showcase leading law firms who are advising on issues around climate change, governance, and sustainability, while also highlighting their own internal best practices and initiatives.
Matheson was the first Irish law firm to establish a dedicated partner-led ESG Advisory Group and has long been at the forefront of driving sustainable practices in the legal industry. The ESG Advisory Group provides an integrated approach to supporting clients in responding to legislative and regulatory change; delivering on their own ESG goals; and meeting the challenges and opportunities in doing so. Our dedicated group of 12 partners combines a strong collaborative focus with deep industry knowledge, providing ESG expertise in the areas of sustainable finance; governance; climate action; energy, natural resources and utilities; waste and the circular economy; employment practices; supply chain management; investment funds; environmental and planning; data privacy; sustainable construction; and sustainable commercial real estate.
ESG and sustainability are a strategic priority for Matheson. Internally, Matheson's Environmental Sustainability Committee, part of our Impactful Business Programme, is tasked with implementing initiatives and setting targets to ensure that the firm meets its sustainability objectives. The firm is also consistently integrating ESG factors into the legal services it offers in order to address the complex challenges that clients are facing today.
