Environmental risks in real estate and corporate transactions are a concern
for property owners, buyers and lenders. Environmental due diligence is
critical to determine the scope of these risks, preserving defenses to
liabilities and managing environmental issues. Our program
will address how due diligence can help you and your clients evaluate
exposure to statutory liability, complicated regulations, state and federal
agency enforcement, and clean-up costs. Appropriately managed due
diligence and risk allocation can help you and your client avoid unhappy
surprises after the deal is done.
Join us to learn strategies for mitigating exposure to environmental
liabilities and to examine the statutory and regulatory framework that
drives environmental due diligence in real estate and corporate
transactions.
