U.S. Proposes 10% forced labor surtax on Canadian shipments; Utah authorizes first "AI Law Firm"

U.S. Proposes 10% forced labor surtax on Canadian shipments; Utah authorizes first "AI Law Firm" Meta Description: U.S. proposes 10% forced labor surtax affecting Canadian exporters; Superlegal launches first sandbox-authorized AI Law Firm in Utah; Canada unveils "AI for All" national strategy. U.S. Tariff threat: 10% surtax for supply chain gaps. On June 2, 2026, the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) issued a proposal that sent shockwaves through the Canadian export sector. Citing insufficient enforcement of bans on imports produced with forced labor, the U.S. has proposed a 10% additional duty on goods imported from 60 trading partners, specifically naming Canada. Crucially, the USTR proposal includes an exemption: goods that fully satisfy the rules of origin under the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA/USMCA) will remain exempt from this 10% surtax. This places an immediate burden on Canadian manufacturers and exporters to ensure their Bill of Materials (BOM) and supplier attestations are strictly compliant and auditable. In response, the Canadian federal government has signaled it will introduce strengthened supply chain and forced labor enforcement legislation before Parliament rises for the summer recess. The rise of the "AI Law Firm": Utah Sandbox authorizes Superlegal. In legal technology, a historic boundary was crossed on June 3, 2026. Superlegal officially launched what it terms "the AI Law Firm," authorized by the Utah Supreme Court's Legal Services Innovation Sandbox. Unlike typical SaaS integrations, Superlegal is permitted to operate as a technology-first entity delivering legal services directly to small and mid-sized businesses (SMEs), initially targeting the construction industry. The service model utilizes specialized AI agents to review and redline commercial agreements in under 24 hours, with a licensed attorney performing the final review and sign-off. By automating the bulk of the drafting and review cycle, the firm can offer contract reviews for as low as $117 per contract, a fraction of traditional firm rates. Harvey AI Secures ISO 42001 Certification and expands data core. Complementing this, legal AI pioneer Harvey AI announced on June 5, 2026, that it has achieved ISO 42001 certification, making it one of the first dedicated legal AI platforms to achieve this global standard for AI Management Systems. Alongside the certification, Harvey introduced Space Admin roles for granular permissions, direct .pst email archive uploads for discovery, and added 160+ new global legal databases to its retrieval engine. Canada unveils "AI for All" National Strategy. On the regulatory front, the Canadian government officially launched "AI for All" on June 4, 2026. This multi-billion-dollar federal strategy focuses on accelerating AI adoption across industries while establishing safety and security benchmarks. However, legal analysts note that Canada still lacks a comprehensive, consolidated AI statute like the EU AI Act, leaving businesses to navigate a patchwork of provincial privacy rules and federal guidelines for the foreseeable future. Strategic checklist for smes and legal teams. * Conduct an Origin Audit: Exporters shipping from Canada to the U.S. must audit their supplier documentation to ensure they can verify CUSMA-compliant origin rules in the event of U.S. customs audits. * Review Legal AI Tech Stacks: Traditional law firms and corporate legal departments should evaluate agentic AI workflows (such as those integrated into Microsoft Word and document management systems) to match sandbox-backed cost efficiencies. * Establish Data Governance: Legal teams adopting AI tools must ensure strict governance, leveraging platforms with ISO 42001 standards or setting up "non-training" data privacy clauses in their vendor agreements.

Harvey secures $200M at an $11B valuation as AI agents reshape the legal industry CWEB Business news.

Harvey secures $200M at an $11B valuation as AI agents reshape the legal industry CWEB Business news. Add to Favorite March 31, 2026 Views: 10004 * Harvey raised $200 million at an $11 billion valuation to expand its AI agents for legal and professional services. * More than 100,000 lawyers across 1,300 organizations now rely on Harvey for contract analysis, compliance, due diligence, and litigation. * The company's rapid growth highlights how vertical AI startups are gaining momentum despite broader competition from OpenAI and Anthropic. Legal work is no longer just assisted by artificial intelligence - it is increasingly being executed by AI agents that manage complex workflows from start to finish. Harvey, a platform purpose-built for law firms and in-house legal teams, has raised $200 million in fresh capital at an $11 billion valuation, signaling a major shift in how the legal sector adopts specialized AI infrastructure. The company's rapid ascent underscores a broader trend: vertical AI startups are gaining substantial traction even as general-purpose AI giants continue to expand their dominance. The round was co-led by returning investors GIC and Sequoia, with participation from Andreessen Horowitz, Coatue, Conviction Partners, Elad Gil, Evantic, and Kleiner Perkins. Harvey has now raised over $1 billion in total funding, a figure that reflects the depth of investor confidence in its sector-specific approach. The new capital will be used to scale the AI agents that customers deploy across their organizations and to expand embedded legal engineering teams globally, ensuring that firms can implement and customize the technology at a deeper level. Harvey's origins trace back to a cold email sent by its co-founders - Gabe Pereyra, a former DeepMind AI researcher, and Winston Weinberg, a securities and antitrust litigator who previously practiced at O'Melveny & Myers. Experimenting independently with ChatGPT, they recognized the untapped potential to transform legal workflows and reached out to OpenAI, which later became an investor. That early insight has since evolved into a platform now used by more than 100,000 lawyers across 1,300 organizations, from global law firms to corporate legal departments. The company is among the fastest-growing players in the application layer of AI, driven by a fundamental shift in legal work. High-volume and increasingly complex tasks - such as contract analysis, compliance, due diligence, and litigation support - are moving to AI agents that manage processes from start to finish. Harvey recently launched its Customer Advisory Board to deepen collaboration with leading clients, and it has strengthened its executive bench with the appointments of Siva Gurumurthy as Chief Technology Officer and John Haddock as Chief Business Officer. "AI isn't just assisting lawyers. It's becoming the system through which legal work gets done," said Winston Weinberg, CEO and co-founder of Harvey. "The law firms and in-house teams leading the way are building agents that execute complex workflows so lawyers can focus on judgment, strategy, and outcomes."

Harvey hires Omar Puertas from Cuatrecasas.

Harvey hires Omar Puertas from Cuatrecasas. * Moves * 31/03/2026 * 2 minutes read As anticipated by the lawyer in a post on his LinkedIn profile a week ago, Omar Puertas has moved to Harvey from Cuatrecasas, where built a career spanning international arbitration and, more recently, artificial intelligence in the legal sector. Reflecting on his departure, Puertas said in a post on his LinkedIn profile: "I spent 25 years at Cuatrecasas. Long enough for a law firm to stop being a law firm and become something else - a way of being, a way of seeing." Explaining his move, he said: "You feel it before you understand it; that moment when what lies ahead starts calling you more than what you already have. I've just joined Harvey. My two passions, law and technology, finally together." The profile. Puertas joined Cuatrecasas in 2000 in Barcelona and later played a key role in the firm's international expansion, relocating to Shanghai in 2007 to launch its first Asia office. He served as managing partner of the Shanghai office until 2019, advising on cross-border disputes and investments across Asia, Europe and Latin America.
