Global Readiness Backed by U.S. Strength

As the largest U.S. only full-service law firm we have built our international capabilities around two foundational principles.

First, due to our cross-border experience and our deep knowledge of the entire U.S. legal market grounded in 25 offices across every region of the country, we are a go-to choice for clients with in-bound investment and for international law firms needing a U.S. partner.

Secondly, when our clients need counsel outside the U.S., our global relationships with many of the finest firms in the world ensure that our clients can form relationships with the right lawyers in the right places rather than having to pick between a limited number of lawyers employed across a smattering of countries.

Polsinelli’s Foreign Desk Leaders are responsible for maintaining relationships with partner firms in foreign jurisdictions. Our relationships are derived from our curated list of global alliances, as well as our membership in the Multilaw network.

This isn’t the standard Am Law 100 model. However, when you put clients first, sometimes you have to create your own model. We believe that’s what a law firm should be.

Key Takeaways The U.S. Court of International Trade (CIT) invalidated President Trump’s Section 122 10% tariffs, holding that the Administration exceeded the authority delegated by Congress under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974. The Administration has appealed the decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. The CIT’s injunction is limited. The court granted relief only to the plaintiffs – the State of Washington, Burlap & Barrel and Basic Fun! – and declined to issue nationwide relief. The tariffs remain in place for most importers pending appeal, and continue to apply broadly unless additional importers seek and obtain relief. The decision increases pressure on the Administration to pivot to alternative statutory authorities, including Section 301 and Section 232, for

Key Takeaways U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) will launch Phase 1 of CAPE on April 20, giving many importers their first access to the ACE-based path to request IEEPA duty refunds. More complicated entries – including those involving certain AD/CVD orders, protests, drawback, reconciliation and liquidated entries that are more than 80 days past liquidation – remain outside Phase 1 or will follow a different timeline. Importers and brokers should act now to confirm ACE portal access, ACH/electronic refund enrollment, U.S. bank account information and entry eligibility before submitting CAPE declarations. CBP also has made clear that filers may not initiate an IEEPA refund request through a Post Summary Correction (PSC). Timing of refund declaration processing will vary. For many standard accepted entries, CBP
