Managing Environmental Risks with Environmental Insurance when Buying, Owning or Financing Commercial Real Estate

Shipman & Goodwin attorneys Andrew Davis and Aaron Levy will provide an overview of environmental risk management strategies, including environmental insurance policies that are available in the market. The presentation will include practical advice for the commercial real estate practitioner regarding key issues to consider when evaluating environmental issues generally and using environmental insurance as a potential risk management tool specifically. The presenters will offer real-world examples of how environmental insurance can “box in” certain risks by managing environmental conditions that threaten a deal, providing comfort to buyers, sellers and lenders alike. The presentation will also identify key gaps in coverage in off-the-shelf environmental insurance policies and discuss the importance of tailoring (or “manuscripting”) a policy to the specifics of the deal, the parties and the underlying environmental risks.

This program qualifies for CT MCLE.
