trade legal skills for United States

U.S. trade law sits at the intersection of executive power and statutory mandate — antidumping and countervailing duty petitions run through the Department of Commerce and the U.S. International Trade Commission, while Section 301 investigations and export controls under the Export Administration Regulations add a separate enforcement layer that shifts with each administration. The trade legal skills for the United States in the ThomasMore catalog are built around that institutional map, covering AD/CVD practice, CFIUS review, sanctions compliance, customs classification, and trade-agreement origin rules. Each skill is agent-ready, delivering a tariff classification memo, a CFIUS jurisdictional screen, or a country-of-origin analysis directly over MCP or as a downloadable file.

Because Commerce duty calculations and BIS licensing policy can turn on a single product description or end-user certification, precision in drafting and analysis is where these skills earn their value. Authors in the ThomasMore catalog maintain them as Federal Register rulemaking and ITC determinations move the goalposts. Practitioners advising importers, exporters, or investors facing national-security review can filter by license or author to match the skill to the matter at hand.
