Today’s corporate leadership expects General Counsels, and the internal legal departments they lead, to be business partners that actively participate in the development and implementation of business strategies, not just attorneys who evaluate and mitigate risk. The most efficient and valued legal departments are wholly integrated into the company’s culture and embedded with the business side. Brandy’s executive legal search practice is devoted to helping her clients meet this need.Brandy has deep experience leading General Counsel and Chief Compliance Officer searches, as well as searches for senior reports to the General Counsel, such as Regional / Divisional General Counsels, Corporate Secretaries, Chief IP Counsels and Chief Securities Counsels. Her legal and compliance clients include publicly and privately held companies that span a variety of industries including financial services, retail, consumer products, technology, insurance and healthcare. Before joining Marlin Hawk, Brandy was a Partner leading the Legal Search Practice at DHR, and a Managing Director in the In-House Practice Group at a Major, Lindsey & Africa. Prior to that, she practiced as a commercial litigator in the New York offices of Anderson, Kill & Olick, P.C., McKee Nelson, LLP, and Bingham McCutchen, LLP. Brandy holds a J.D. from the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law at Yeshiva University, as well as a M.A. in Comparative Literature and B.A. in Comparative Literature and Creative Writing from University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
