The ESG Ready Lawyer: Katten lawyers Johnjerica Hodge and India Williams lead firm’s newly launched practice focused on ESG risk and investigations
Katten is focused on partnering with clients in adopting environmental, social and governance policies that promote their sustainability and related goals and mitigate risk in a manner that creates long-term and sustainable value for our clients and their investors.
As ESG continues to be a leading topic of conversation, particularly within the legal communities, the partners discuss the importance of this practice and Katten’s approach in partnering with clients by adopting ESG policies that promote sustainability and mitigate risk in a manner that creates long-term and sustainable value, and how they go about achieving those objectives. The pair also give their views on how best to navigate the increased politicization of ESG matters, as well as the value of conducting DEI (diversity, equity and inclusion) audits.
