Episode 133-Transitioning to In-house From Litigation and Building a Legal Team—With Matt Campobasso

Episode notes

For many lawyers in private practice, going in-house is the ultimate goal. For transactional lawyers and for some specialties like employment law, the path to a corporate role is more obvious. For litigators, less so. Most companies outsource a lot of their litigation because the need tends to fluctuate. But litigators can bring valuable skills to a corporate environment. And there are many examples of litigators who have gone on to have successful in-house careers. In this episode I speak with Matt Campobasso , a litigator who has built a solid in-house legal career after having a successful career in private practice and public service. Matt Campobasso is the General Counsel and Corporate Secretary of Enfusion, Inc., a publicly traded fintech company headquartered in Chicago. He joined the company in 2020 as Deputy General Counsel and helped take the company public. Prior to that, he served as in-house counsel to two other companies. He began his career as a prosecutor and then spent ten years litigating with a major firm in Chicago.
