At the core of the Office of the General Counsel, the Transactions & Administration legal team collaborates with campus stakeholders to advance the Institute’s initiatives, emphasizing integrity and compliance. We uphold and integrate the Institute’s mission, strategic goals and core values in every facet of our work while ensuring compliance with federal, state, and local laws and other relevant policies and requirements.

Managing a multitude of various requests, our solutions-based approach balances legal and other requirements with Georgia Tech's mission and strategic objectives, identifying risks and proposing solutions. In addition to legal concerns, we help establish comprehensive compliance processes by verifying authorizations, engaging key stakeholders and confirming consistent adherence to agreements.

As Georgia Tech’s initiatives expand beyond our campus globally, we ensure that our activities include robust compliance and risk mitigation, safeguarding the Institute while effectively transforming its innovative visions into tangible realities. As stewards of Georgia Tech's transactional efforts, we blend legal acumen with the Institute's mission, goals and values, consistently maintaining integrity, foresight, and accuracy in all we do.
