What does “GSL” stand for?
When we were focused on legal practice alone, the initial company name Global Solutions in Law (or GSL in short) fully corresponded to the nature of our business. But as the company was covering new practice areas, some clarifying words started to appear next to “GSL” to denote the particular line of business. This way we had GSL Law & Consulting, GSL Audit, GSL Translations, GSL Conferences and Seminars and others.
This is the official version. Those who do not agree with it actively exercise their wit by offering alternative versions of what “GSL” stands for.
