Product Description
Product Description
Environmental risks and opportunities arise across a wide spectrum of projects and specialties. Whether helping someone construct a building, buy a business, operate a company, permit a project, or defend against a lawsuit, attorneys with diverse practices encounter environmental issues. Helping clients identify environmental permitting and compliance obligations, liability risks, and mitigation strategies adds value to any lawyer’s counsel. Through case studies that reflect client situations commonly confronted by both environmental specialists and attorneys focused on other areas, the program offers practical advice about minimizing and managing clients’ exposure to environmental liabilities. You gain the ability to issue-spot obligations and opportunities arising from a range of environmental laws across a project’s life, as well as best practice tips for interacting with environmental agencies to move projects through permitting and enforcement proceedings. Bring your questions to customize your conversation with the experts!
