A Promise Not to Sue
Protecting the buyer of environmentally questionable real estate

A land developer buying a piece of land listed as a Department of Environmental Protection site came to us for help in the purchase. We secured an agreement that provided him with valuable protection from environmental liabilities and further protected him from third-party liability by negotiating a “Covenant Not to Sue Agreement” with the Attorney General’s office.
