Let's Get Personal with Zac Byer, Director of Litigation and Intellectual Property at Activision Blizzard
In this episode we chat with Zac Byer about his journey to Director of Litigation and Intellectual Property at Activision Blizzard (shout out to Candy Crush)! Although Zac's resume includes working in big law as both an associate and partner, his journey to an in-house role involved a number of twists and turns. Zac shares his decision to take a year off during law school to pursue a role at Luntz Global, a political and communications consulting firm, and his decision to clerk after several years at a firm. He also gives us a detailed look into what being a litigator in-house really looks like, and how it differs from working at a firm. Although going in-house is a less common path for a litigator, Zac paints a helpful picture of how one might forge this path!
