Corporate & Securities Law

Thomas Friedman on the Law?

By John Wallbillich

Well no, actually about the teetering auto industry, but on some days many things have a legal angle to me:

… I can?t help but reflect on what, in my view, is the most important rule of business in today?s integrated and digitized global market, where knowledge and innovation tools are so widely distributed. It?s this: Whatever can be done, will be done. The only question is will it be done by you or to you. Just don?t think it won?t be done.

An article more to the legal point today sports the headline:

“Law Department Budget Cuts Could Lead to Change in Outside Firms.”

I don’t think the causation will be that direct. More like Palsgraf, probably. So I think it’s closer to this:

Change in outside firms will come from GCs changing outside firms.

All aboard? (Just watch out for a person on the platform with a package).
