He explains that before engaging a lawyer for international business matters, it is essential to consider their experience and knowledge of international contract laws, as well as their familiarity with mutual legal assistance treaties, conventions, and agreements that the relevant countries have ratified and adopted. It is also important to ascertain whether there are any restrictions imposed by the U.S. government regarding business operations or travel to the specific country in question.

Furthermore, evaluating the lawyer’s network of professionals in the target country is crucial.

This network may include local attorneys, consultants, and other professionals who can contribute their expertise and insights to the successful execution of your international business endeavors.
