McDermott Will & Emery

Your management of corporate sustainability and environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues can have a significant impact on your business’s standing and reputation with investors and other important stakeholders, and on your bottom line. Before making investment decisions, investors increasingly assess how well you integrate sustainable principles of value creation into your business for insights into your future financial performance. Other stakeholders seek to hold your business accountable for the environmental and societal impacts of your operations. To better position your business for long-term value creation, we offer experienced and knowledgeable legal counsel for establishing and maintaining effective ESG practices.

At McDermott, ESG issues arise in nearly all our practice areas. To counsel you on strategic decisions and transactions relating to business sustainability, and to guide you and investors through the intricacies of the ESG ecosystem—including compliance with existing and proposed regulatory requirements, and industry and other non-governmental ESG standards, frameworks and guidance—our interdisciplinary team collaborates across our offices around the world. We bring you top-ranked practitioners in relevant areas, including Energy, Capital Markets and Public Companies, Insurance, Private Equity, Investment Funds, Employment, Environmental, Impact Finance, Transactions, Executive Compensation and Data Privacy.
