In this episode of Lessons I Learned in Law Scott Brown speaks to Sterling Miller, author of the award-winning legal blog “Ten Things You Need to Know as In-House Counsel”. The blog could be a "how to" guide for In-House lawyers everywhere.
 
He is a three-time general counsel having served in that role at Silicon Valley-based Marketo Inc, including involvement in its sale to Adobe in 2019, and at Texas-based travel industry giants Sabre Corporation and Travelocity.com.

He is also the author of five books published by the American Bar Association and based on the blog.

Sterling shares the three lessons he has learned in law including:

  • No-one is indispensable, so never get too comfortable and always keep grinding!
  • Edit, be practical and ensure your written content is concise and easy to understand.
  • Legal doesn’t run the business; the department exists to support the operation.
