USLAW Network Virtual Worldwide Retreat: 2021 and Beyond

Amundsen Davis joined with over 100 USLAW (www.uslaw.org) member law firms recently to participate in the USLAW Network Virtual Worldwide Retreat, a 10-day conference developed for general counsel, in-house counsel and all legal decision makers. The retreat included presentations that looked ahead, beyond the immediacy of COVID-19 issues, and addressed significant business, legal and economic issues while projecting what the future will look like in the next 12, 24 and 36 months.
