Join leading lawyers for the national launch of a new practice guide on climate change and sustainability in real estate development. As climate-related risks increasingly affect due diligence, financing, insurance, regulatory compliance, construction, and long-term property value, lawyers must look beyond traditional environmental concerns.
Written by practitioners for practitioners, this guide provides practical strategies for identifying risk, uncovering opportunities, reducing costs, and structuring more resilient and sustainable real estate transactions. This session will highlight the guide’s key recommendations and explain why these fast-evolving issues are essential to modern real estate practice.
