LEGAL TEAM
Scott Folkers is Winnebago’s sole in-house attorney. He was working as the company’s assistant general counsel when he was tapped last year to replace Raymond Beebe, who retired as general counsel after 38 years at the company. When Folkers needs a hand on product liability matters or “lemon law” issues, he often consults Ron Post, Winnebago’s product compliance manager.
