Pollution Legal Liability

Today virtually every business that owns, trades in, develops or finances the purchase of land is subject to a growing risk of legal action involving pollution -  even if they were in no way involved in causing that pollution. These liabilities can result from historical contamination associated with a site or could be due to the risks associated with ongoing activities. Increasing public concern, constantly changing and newly emerging regulations, an ever-growing list of potentially hazardous materials and unexpected catastrophes leave companies not only facing clean-up costs but also liable for bodily injury and damage caused to other peoples’ property. Chartis Europe Pollution Legal Liability provides a site specific insurance policy.
