About Christopher Casey

I am an accomplished in-house legal counsel, advisor, and leader who develops business and legal strategies that facilitate the execution and support of global commercial matters. Over a fifteen-year career, I have worked for high-profile Fortune 500 and 100 companies including TIBCO Software (now Cloud Software Group) and Oracle America, Inc. in legal and leadership roles. My contract negotiation skills and ability to serve as a key liaison between team members and customers enable me to consistently exceed business outcomes and improve legal agility. I draft, revise, and negotiate complex commercial agreements covering software, cloud services, SaaS, hardware, professional services, vendors, and partnerships, manage data, privacy, and compliance matters, advise business units on strategic matters, and provide commercial and legal risk assessments. As an improvement-minded leader, I train and mentor global legal service members and business teams on new, emerging, or existing legal requirements and company policies. As a committee representative for legal teams, I focus on due diligence and contract management with an emphasis on improving standard form agreements, legal processes, and contract management systems. Consequently, I have established a reputation as a versatile in-house attorney with a diverse toolkit, a charismatic leader who translates legal and technical details into easily digestible information, and a collaborative professional who empowers customers and stakeholders alike.
