Counsel Justin Brown, a former member of our SALT team, rejoins us after spending four years in-house at a global energy company, bringing with him a new perspective on the challenges facing corporate tax departments and the role of outside counsel.

In the latest episode of the SALT Shaker Podcast, Justin joins Partners Jeremy Gove and Chelsea Marmor to discuss his move from private practice to industry and back again, including lessons learned from the oil and gas sector, how in-house experience shapes his approach to client service, and what makes the relationship between in-house and outside counsel most effective.

They also tackle an overrated/underrated debate on today’s constant stream of “breaking news” alerts.
