  This manual for non-environmental law specialists explains the important ways in which environmental law affects everyday property, financial and business transactions. Focusing on how environmental law applies within particular contexts, the book covers the major liabilities, ways of maximizing protection for clients, insurance against the main risks and the use of environmental consultants. This edition has been updated throughout with particular attention to environmental liabilities and searches. It contains a revised chapter on property transactions that includes the Law Society's Warning Card on contaminated land and searches, and a new section on Contaminated Land Insurance. It also details contemporary developments in EU law, including the Environmental Liability Directive.
