Imagine your company just bought 20 acres for a strip mall or moved into vacant commercial space. Suddenly, buried drums are discovered on the neighboring property and it is now being called a Superfund site. This session will cover issues on how to identify and avoid costly environmental liabilities. The panelists will offer practical insights into environmental terminology, due diligence and negotiating strategies that will help avoid costly expenditures.

Many companies acquire real estate from time to time. This can range from acquisitions to meet the needs of a company's operational growth to acquisition of real estate in connection with mergers and acquisitions of other companies or business units.

To a non-real estate lawyer, it can also involve arcane issues of real estate law (such as easements, rights of first refusal, liens and encroachments).
