Corporate and Board of Directors Governance and Operations Counsel

CORPORATE AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS GOVERNANCE AND OPERATIONS COUNSEL

Jimerson Birr’s attorneys work with corporate leadership and boards of directors to facilitate an understanding of the details of corporate governance, and the vital role that leaders of organizations have to play in establishing effective practices. For most companies, those leaders are the executives and directors who decide the long-term strategy of the company in order to serve the best interests of the owners (members or shareholders) and, more broadly, stakeholders, such as customers, suppliers, providers of long-term finance, the community and regulators. We regularly provide counsel to corporate fiduciaries who steer the organization toward a sustainable future by assisting in the adoption of sound, ethical, and legal corporate governance and financial management policies.
