ClimateIndex™
Compliance and due diligence for climate risks in property transactions
Climate change represents one of the greatest threats to property assets, communities and businesses. With Law Society Guidance in place, conveyancers and commercial real estate lawyers need to provide clarity on physical and transitional risks that could affect their client’s transaction. With ClimateIndex™, it’s all there at no extra cost in our key environmental searches.
Law Society Guidance on Climate Risk
The new Law Society Guidance on Climate Risks has now been published. This important document helps lawyers and conveyancers understand how to approach advising clients about the potential impact of climate change.
Property transactions are perhaps the most exposed to these risks for the client and the firm in terms of potential litigation risk.
Download our summary guide to the Guidance now to find out how you can ensure you and your team can use climate data and advice in a compliant and effective manner.
