**丨Zhihe.
Historically, no country has been more dominant than the United States in terms of the degree to which the law dominates society. There is no doubt that law has played a crucial role in American history. ”
James Webb, U.S. Undersecretary of State and Administrator of NASA.
Do you pay attention to U.S. law firms?If the answer is no, then you are missing half of the global legal services market.
According to the latest 2023 Global 200 list:
In the top 10, with the exception of Dentons, which ranks 6th, the rest are all US law firms.
Of the top 50 law firms, a total of 40 law firms are located in the United States.
U.S. law firms account for more than two-thirds of the top 200.
The number of lawyers in the United States is about twice that of China, but it has achieved more than 10 times the revenue generation of China's legal industry.
The best way to surpass a person is to become friends with them, observe and learn from them up close.
Listen to second-hand information 10,000 times, it is better to experience it on the spot.
This time, let's go to the United States together to see if their position as a "global leader" is still solid.

Professor Ashish has been following the Chinese legal services market and has researched and advised many law firms around the world, forming a time-tested database of classic law firm cases, including Chinese law firm cases. This makes the content of Ashish both theoretical and practical.
At the same time, his class is different from traditional speech teaching, adding more heuristic interaction and communication, and the teaching style is deeply loved by students. To be a partner of the management team, what is more needed than knowledge input is to inspire and leap in thinking, and this is what Ashish is good at.

Professor Ashish has developed new content that is different from the previous ones for this course in the United States. In recent years, the international economic situation has changed drastically, and the legal industry has also been greatly impacted. Professor Ashish has formed new data and new achievements in his research to keep up with the changing situation, and put forward new theories, new models and new cases for the development of law firms that adapt to the new environment. We will be the first to learn from the latest research results and management strategies of Ashish, and gain new inspiration.
