Program Summary

With the Supreme Court potentially poised to invalidate recent tariffs, organizations face a confusing scenario: the possibility of some $200B in refunds to be sought, the specter of tariff reinstatement through other means, and general ongoing unpredictability regarding costs and processes for global trade. Having clear visibility into contract terms—such as price adjustments and renegotiation provisions—is essential to navigating this volatility, while implementing favorable terms in supplier, customer, and partner agreements can help build resilience.

Tune in to legal and technology leaders including Bob Ambrogi of Above the Law, Jonathan Todd, Vice Chair of the Transportation & Logistics Practice Group at Benesch Law, and Hal Marcus, Legal AI Evangelist at Workday for a webinar focused on practical solutions to help organizations thrive through uncertainty.

We’ll discuss the current state of the tariff conundrum and explore strategies for achieving contract visibility with the latest AI innovations.

Learn how contract intelligence can help you confidently navigate uncertainty and protect your bottom line.

This Above the Law webinar is sponsored by Workday.

Key topics to be discussed:

  • How to find the tariff-related contractual answers you need quickly and easily just by asking questions
  • How to continuously rank, classify, and summarize financial terms—without even having to ask
  • Strategies to mitigate supply chain disruptions and cost volatility with negotiated terms
  • Real-world examples of businesses leveraging AI-powered contract data to overcome challenges

This course is co-sponsored with myLawCLE.
