On the 15th anniversary of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (the Act), enacted July 30, 2002, in-house counsel should pause to reflect on how the on-going legacy of that seminal law continues to impact the role of the general counsel, lawyers’ professional responsibilities, and the relationship of corporate counsel to governance. This anniversary also provides a teaching moment for younger lawyers unaware of this legacy, and for corporate leadership to better understand the critical responsibilities of corporate counsel to good governance.
