American Bar Association 2022 Corporate Counsel CLE Seminar
In February, 2022, Stories Evolved convened an expert panel to help lawyers recalibrate their clients’ risk registers. ‘The Truth About ESG’ featured key lawsuits and oversight trends to highlight corporate vulnerability for failing to align to the ESG agenda with sufficient urgency.
Stories Evolved spoke with expert panellists Tara Guinta, Alessandra Lehmen and Lawson Fite about what keeps them up at night about ESG litigation, including disclosure liability around carbon-offset projects, human rights due diligence, and activist shareholder actions.
Panelists provided a global insight into the novel kinds of lawsuits businesses should be planning for and how legal professionals can level up to meet their clients’ needs.
