Marc Gurell, partner in Seyfarth's Real Estate department, is serving as a panelist for the Realcomm | IBcon 2020 webinar panel "Navigating the Emerging COVID-19 Legal Issues for Commercial and Corporate Real Estate" on October 26.
As workplaces open slowly, landlords and tenants are faced with making decisions related to access, health screening, cleaning, and the well-being and safety of occupants. Leases, agreements and insurance policies are scrutinized for contractual obligations, but navigating the unprecedented COVID-19 crisis poses a new set of legal challenges. This session focuses on some of the most pressing legal concerns related to the pandemic, including missed lease obligations and liability protections for all building owners and tenants to safeguard them from potential coronavirus lawsuits. Emerging automation solutions that help navigate the current legal landscape for commercial and corporate owners and occupiers are also explored.
