If there was ever a moment that called for a toast … In July former Reed Smith partner Tracy Genesen became general counsel for one of the firm’s clients, Scotch whisky company Edrington USA. The company was launched in the spring to handle U.S. distribution of the Scotland-based corporation’s brands, including Highland Park, Macallan and Cutty Sark.
After about 25 years in practice, Genesen says that in-house counsel was a role she was ready to take on. “I certainly did enjoy at times the array of different matters that you’re asked to work on, because I was able to work on interesting cases in a variety of areas in the industry,” she notes. “[But] there’s really a great spectrum of areas of practice for in-house as well.”
