Andrew Perel will be speaking in an upcoming Strafford, a BARBRI company, live webinar, Environmental Due Diligence in M&A Transactions: Identifying Risks, Mitigating CERCLA Liability, Maintaining BFPP Protection, on Tuesday, November 17, 2026.

The panel will discuss environmental due diligence in M&A transactions, including the types of environmental risks that can arise, assessing those risks in a transactional context, and certain liability defenses that may be available and obtained through the due diligence process.

The panel will review these and other key issues:

  • What are the best practices for evaluating and managing environmental risks in complex commercial transactions?
  • How does a party conduct an “all appropriate inquiry”?
  • How does a purchaser qualify as a bona fide purchaser and maintain that protection after acquisition?
  • What are the most pressing emerging issues in environmental due diligence, including PFAS?
