Please meet Attorney of the Week, Chaka Patterson, a partner at Alston & Bird in San Francisco. Prior to joining Alston & Bird, he served as the General Counsel of a Fortune 1000 public global education company, Treasurer and Head of Investor Relations at a Fortune 100 public global energy company, and a Lecturer on the Law at the University of Chicago Law School. Chaka leverages his experience to lecture extensively and write on how General Counsel and their legal departments can improve their financial acumen and business savvy to transform the legal department from a cost center into a profit center to drive greater value to the businesses they support. Moreover, he prides himself on serving as a trusted advisor to the General Counsel, other C-Suite Executives, and Board members. Chaka serves on the boards of the University of Chicago Law School, the Leadership Institute for Women of Color Attorneys, Inc., and as an advisor to corporate board members as part of the Black Corporate Board Readiness Institute. It’s impressive that he has an extensive pro bono practice focused on vindicating the rights of people wrongfully convicted of crimes they did not commit. He earned his Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from Amherst College, JD from Harvard Law School, and MBA from the The University of Chicago Booth School of Business. In his free time, Chaka enjoys events promoting the next generation of diverse professionals and disciplined sports. #attorneyoftheweek #trailblazer #advocate #effectivementor #corporatelawyer
