Over the years, the New Brunswick Environmental Law Society has had the opportunity to hear from hundreds of New Brunswickers.  Through meetings, conferences and gatherings in communities across the province we have come to understand what the needs are when it comes to the legal dynamics of environmental issues.  We understand that our role is to partner with community groups, organizations and individuals who are facing various legal challenges or who have ideas for law reform.

New Brunswick is fortunate to have dozens of non-profit organizations doing work on a variety of environmental issues.  At the NBELS, our expertise and knowledge is tailored to responding to the legal issues.  We offer a legal information line for quick assessments of situations.  We run an environmental law clinic where law students and lawyers do research or help mount legal actions. We also advise groups on law reform initiatives. And, we tour the province to speak to interested community groups and organizations.

The clinic offers various legal services to New Brunswickers. Most services are provided on a pro bono basis thanks to the contributions of practicing lawyers and law students.
