Est. reading time: 5 mins

Last year, in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center faced a critical crossroads at which treatment for hundreds of patients hung in the balance. There was one treatment many patients desperately needed, and the pharmaceutical company that provided it was having problems with its supply chain. Eventually, representatives of that […]

TIM Brasil, a division of Telecom Italia, excels in telecommunications. However, it’s occasionally struggled with articulating its services on paper. Its cellphone contract, once a cumbersome set of four documents filled with legal jargon and fine print, was a case in point. But by teaming up with a legal tech firm in São Paulo, the […]

Est. reading time: 4 mins

It takes courage to leave everything you’ve ever known behind and start over in a new country, but it takes a special kind of person to pull that off amid a global pandemic. A little more than three years ago, in early 2020, Ilse Moreno packed up all her belongings, put her then-13-year-old dog Lolo […]

Claudia Brea-Stevens – 3Sixty Duty Free

Est. reading time: 5 mins

The oversight didn’t happen on her watch, but it might have been among the factors that led to Claudia Brea-Stevens becoming 3Sixty Duty Free’s first general counsel in August 2021. A year or so earlier, the global leader in duty-free specialty and inflight shops had its customs license expire at El Dorado International Airport in […]

Michelle Orr – KeyBank

Transitioning from USD LIBOR is one belaboring process. That’s the acronym for the London Interbank Offered Rate for U.S. Dollars, which is used to approximate the average interest rate banks pay on unsecured loans from each other. LIBOR historically has been used for many types of financial products. London label notwithstanding, the index is used […]

Alison Hinds-Pearl – Revlon Consumer Products

Jonathan Reich – Grid Market Research

Est. reading time: 5 mins

Ever loquacious and entertaining, Jonathan Reich can make for good company at cocktail parties. Yet, he jokes—perhaps half-seriously—that other attorneys edge away in fear for their safety after learning about his practice. If so, they’re probably overreacting but there’s no denying that Reich’s experiences are not shared widely—if at all—among his legal brethren in high […]

Est. reading time: 5 mins

Testimonials

The piece highlighting my company, Bob Baker Enterprises, Inc., came out fabulous. Our company is in the new and used car sales and service industry. Everyone was great to work with and extremely professional. They produced a high-quality product and have provided expert assistance and guidance post-production of the article.
– Wade Poulson, General Counsel, Bob Baker Enterprises Inc.
I was honored to be the subject of an article. I enjoy reading Vanguard articles and seeing how other attorneys got to their positions and see their jobs. It's also interesting to see how different law firms partner with the subjects of the articles.
– Henry Marquard, in-house counsel, Stanley Consultants Inc.
It was a great honor to be featured in Vanguard Law. Working with every member of the team, from the initial interview with Erin Clark, through production with Victor Martins, writing the article with Taryn Plumb and creating the final content with Dave Gushee, was a true pleasure. Everyone was very professional, enthusiastic and supportive, and their creative approach and positive attitude clearly came through in the final product.
– Kevin C. Rakowski, Senior Vice President, Deputy General Counsel, Compliance with Radian Group Inc.
As promised in advance, my feature in Vanguard has increased my visibility within the profession and prompted more than a few people I have not communicated with recently to reconnect. One of the Italian law firms I have used in the past is now in the process of interviewing me for an article on their website and tweeting out the feature story. Activity and the number of people connecting with me on LinkedIn has soared, which is great. The Vanguard writers and editorial staff were great to work with—highly professional and made the effort to make the experience both fun and rewarding (they were also respectful of the time pressures and demands all lawyers face). I was very pleased with the experience and the final outcome. Needless to say, I have been very pleased. All in all working with Vanguard has been a very positive experience which generated good publicity for both Shawcor and myself. My sincere thanks.
– Tim Hutzul, General Counsel, ShawCor Ltd.
