Our Environmental Policy

The introduction and implementation of this policy is a commitment by the Partners of Hegarty LLP to collaborate with our staff, clients, suppliers and neighbours to reduce our environmental impact.

We have identified the following key environmental impacts associated with the provision of legal services:

Waste disposal and recycling
Consumption of energy, water and other resources
Production, management and disposal of correspondence and paper files
Consumption of paper
Consumption of printer cartridges
Travel to, from and between our offices and visits to clients, court and conferences

The company is committed to reducing these and other impacts and to the continual improvement of our environmental performance in relation to each location in which we operate.

We will do this by:

Meeting and where possible exceeding all environmental regulations relevant to our organisation and its activities
Increasing cost-effectiveness by recording and reducing our consumption of energy and raw materials
Reducing our carbon footprint both locally and in the wider environment
Setting targets for measurable annual improvements
Making our progress available for independent assessment
Sourcing sustainable goods
Encouraging our staff to participate and offer suggesions on how we may improve our performance

By making the business greener, more efficient and achieving cost-effectiveness, the intention would be to release funds back into the firm for investment in the business and in our staff.

It is the responsibility of all employees, visitors and contractors to fully support this policy through active participation and co-operation.

This environmental policy will be displayed at all times and is openly available to all members of the public via our website.

The planning, implementation, monitoring, annual review and continuous improvement of this policy is formally assigned to the Office Manager.
