MERGER AND ACQUISITION SUPPORT ENHANCING DECISION MAKING IN MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS Strong pre-planning and assembly of the proper environmental disclosures can qualify representations, evaluate long-term liability costs, and expedite most mergers and acquisitions. In these transactions, time is of the essence, as setbacks can be detrimental. We assist our clients in defining the contingent and material environmental risks and liabilities, both short and long-term, associated with a proposed transaction. Our experts help our clients understand the culture of the target entity, the governance practices employed, and any emerging regulatory issues to aid in understanding the probability, certainty, and material liability of the assets in question. Early recognition of a transaction’s potential liabilities and assets aids negotiating teams in reaching early consensus— and closing the deal to everyone’s satisfaction.
