  • Having the legal staff and having the upper management from another country able to understand it at a conceptual level and integrate it into their decision making process is entirely different. One of my friend is a lawyer in France who specialises in helping US corporation handle their subsidiaries here. There’s not a week that passes without him being asked how to do something illegal here but legal in the US and the client being baffled and literally refusing to understand that they can’t.

It just doesn’t register.
