Hi,

I need to answer the following question in my application:

"Exploring your topic in more detail, please outline the key legal issues and describe how Osborne Clarke could assist our clients in this space over the next 5 years."

I was wonder whether I should talk about how OC can help construction firms with rising costs or the impact of increased regulation of ESG in the real estate sector?

I think either would work well! Ensure you focus on the legal issues that may arise in these sectors in the next 5 years, rather than the short term or longer term. Let me know if you have any other questions!

I am going to focus on ESG in the real estate sector. I am thinking of talking about legal issues such as the risk of greenwashing claims,
real estate developers failing to meet disclosure requirements and their net zero targets. Thanks for your help!
