Recently, I asked Freshfields’ Pam Marcogliese, DLA Piper’s Sanjay Shirodkar, and Compensia’s Mark Borges the question of “Do you ever get any personal satisfaction from drafting disclosure that you consider to be good?” Here’s a summary of their answers from those videos:
Sanjay Shirdokar says it’s tricky – because nothing happens when you write good disclosure! But that’s the goal. A non-event is a win. You celebrate by not being the center of controversy.
Pam Marcogliese’s version of celebration doesn’t include the need for sweets – just black coffee. Helping a client feel protected is the ultimate reward.
For Mark Borges, it includes books. Buying a book from a local bookstore (or occasionally watches a movie). He loves indie bookstores like Politics and Prose and Kramers in DC. And he enjoys running into former SEC Staff colleagues at author talks at those stores.
