Description: For growing companies, legal strategy should be part of the plan, not something considered only when problems arise. In this episode, John Hill, Partner at Lewis Brisbois, unpacks common legal missteps businesses make as they scale—from misalignment with partners and not fully understanding governance documents to sticking with outdated processes simply because “that’s how it’s always been done.” He also explores how leaders can misread the impact of AI and why failing to plan for litigation can create real long-term risk. John shares practical guidance to help business leaders build legal awareness into their everyday decision-making.
