Dean Rocco (Partner-Los Angeles, CA), Kimberly Blair (Partner-Chicago, IL) and Jonathan Meer (Partner-New York, NY) will present a Wilson Elser Forum webinar, “D&O and Management Liability for Cannabis Companies: The Risks and Emerging Markets for Coverage,” on October 7, 2021. Cannabis companies are increasingly the target of expensive lawsuits against directors and officers, while the market D&O insurance remains a challenge, leaving cannabis companies exposed to volatility from risky decisions and often unable to attract top executives whose personal assets may not be fully indemnified or protected. Dean, Kim and Jon will explore the types of claims commonly brought against directors and officers and the specific D&O risks facing cannabis companies. Topics include the D&O market and the types and kinds of coverage available to the industry. The panel also will review trends in D&O claims and cannabis reforms and how they may impact the future of D&O claims and coverage in the cannabis industry.
