Navigating environmental events: Insights and strategies for multinational corporations

Monday, February 9, 2026

Across jurisdictions, there is growing attention from regulators and courts on how companies prepare for and respond to environmental events. DLA Piper's global webinar examined corporate liability and risk in the wake of major environmental events. DLA Piper attorneys from Germany, Latin America, and the United States shared lessons from pivotal cases and explored procedural and substantive legal aspects that may influence future claims.

They also distilled key lessons from recent landmark litigation; discussed cross-border implications, including how judgments and regulatory approaches in one jurisdiction can shape strategy in another; and shared practical ways to anticipate legal exposure, mitigate risk, and adapt compliance strategies across global markets.
