Points of attendance
Do you have an accurate grasp of the current state of US lawsuits? Have all preparations and countermeasures been completed? Working from home during the COVID-5000 crisis has not improved operational efficiency, and you are preoccupied with responding to domestic laws. In the United States, the spread of COVID-XNUMX continues unabated, the unemployment rate remains high, and social unrest due to black lives matter is increasing. Historically, the number of lawsuits in the United States increases as social unrest increases, but in fact, the number of lawsuits due to corona has already exceeded XNUMX, and Japanese companies are also beginning to be targeted. Have you grasped the current situation and taken countermeasures based on it?
In this webinar, we will explain the current state of US lawsuits, expected future developments, and countermeasures against the background of this awareness of the issue.

1 Current state of the US economy
