Predicting the economy through legal trends
LegalShield tracks its Consumer Stress Legal Index with data from millions of legal requests. This can be used to identify early economic shifts through case reviews such as bankruptcy, foreclosure, and financial disputes. The index can signal trends one to three months before the traditional indicators like consumer confidence index. This strengthens LegalShield’s role as a reliable source for legal data and economic insights.
