Environmental Practice
Although shifts in global politics and economic cycles may be difficult to predict, enhanced focus on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) is here to stay. Companies must carefully evaluate their environmental exposures. If not, they can face penalties ranging from nominal fines to remediation, rehabilitation and compensation obligations worth millions.
CAC Group’s Environmental Practice comprises industry-leading experts in environmental risk management. We provide clients with advice on the nature, extent, and severity of their environmental exposures, as well as strategies for mitigating and transferring these risks. Our team also helps clients assess how these exposures may impact their balance sheet, public reputation, legal standing, and fiduciary obligations. With extensive experience across various sectors, such as manufacturing, energy, oil & gas, acquisitions and divestitures, real estate, and contaminated property development, we deliver effective solutions for diverse environmental exposures. We also offer advice on pollution and professional liability to contractors and consultants, including contractor-controlled insurance programs (CCIPs) and owner-controlled insurance programs (OCIPs).
