Gunster Attorney Bob Lamm recently sat down with AGENDA, a Financial Times publication, to discuss how legal departments had no exceptions to pandemic-related cuts.
“I’m always surprised when companies cut overhead across the board … because in my experience, very often, the legal team and the compliance team have a lot more work to do when things are tough than when things are going swimmingly,” said Lamm.
Bob Lamm chairs the Gunster’s Securities Law & Corporate Governance practice. Bob previously served as assistant general counsel and assistant secretary of Pfizer.
