A Message From the Editor

The global fast-fashion company Shein has lost its U.S. general counsel, just as it fights a flurry of litigation and preps for an IPO. Also, legal education in Africa is expanding with help from the African Legal Tech Network SALT. And firms in North America that want to hold on to their associates should take note: A new survey of U.S. and Canadian associates found that young lawyers are mostly driven by compensation and work-life balance.
