Litter and fly tipping covers offences and enforcement when rubbish is dumped or left in public or private spaces, including the criminal and civil steps authorities take to stop it and hold offenders to account. A solicitor in this area helps clients understand who can be prosecuted, what evidence is needed, and how to pursue remedies, including penalties, clean-up orders, and possible prosecutions by local authorities under the Environmental Protection Act 1990 and related legislation. They also advise on defending or bringing claims if a landowner is blamed for dumped waste or if a council pursues enforcement actions.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

Litter and fly tipping matters involve specific offences, such as unlawful dumping, and the use of fixed penalty notices, waste offences, and duties on landowners and occupiers. A solicitor handles, for example, the preparation and service of notices, review of evidence from councils or environmental health officers, liaises with local authorities, and, where relevant, represents clients in court or in civil proceedings seeking remediation or compensation. The work is shaped by statutory thresholds, penalties, and the need to demonstrate causation and responsibility.
