Legal uncertainty is said to be the bane of business — but it’s also where opportunity emerges. Technology is outpacing legal frameworks. US policy is shifting under a new administration, and courts are redrawing regulatory boundaries. Geopolitics is forcing decisions on trade, data sovereignty, and supply chains. These uncertain conditions create pressure points we call forces of law: legal dynamics affecting how businesses compete, invest, and plan.
Featuring insights from Goodwin’s lawyers, this collection examines nine of these forces and provides forward-looking guidance to help businesses future-proof their decisions.
