Is it rude to send a calendar link?

It's rude when the link is the whole email. It's fine when you include an agenda, two suggested times, and a note that they can pick anything else. Give them a way to stay in the thread. Name the stall they care about, offer one small next step, and stop before the thread feels like a sequence.

Should I mention that they clicked my email or page?

You can, gently, if your relationship and industry make that normal. A lot of buyers find it creepy. Safer: reference the topic they likely cared about and ask a question about that topic. Let them keep some privacy. Name the stall they care about, offer one small next step, and stop before the thread feels like a sequence.

Is it okay to send this meeting request on LinkedIn instead of email?

Yes if this team lead is actually active there and the thread isn't about long attachments. Keep the LinkedIn version even shorter. Don't paste the full email. One context line and one question is plenty. Name the stall they care about, offer one small next step, and stop before the thread feels like a sequence.

What should I never say in a Legal meeting request?

Don't write 'we'll crush opposing counsel.' It's TV, not practice. CC'ing their skip-level to apply pressure. Don't say 'I saw you clicked our pricing page' unless you can do it without sounding like a camera in the ceiling. Those three mistakes show up constantly in Legal inboxes and they all read as "this was templated."

How do I follow up with lawyers without sounding pushy?

Be useful and brief. Reference the matter type or operational pain, not a hype line. Give them an easy decline. Many will ignore anything that looks like a mass BD blast because their name is on the letterhead. Name the stall they care about, offer one small next step, and stop before the thread feels like a sequence.

I'd like 15 minutes to pressure-test [topic] against what you're already doing.
