Business Law

Andrea Liburdi advises growing companies on the legal issues that arise at every stage of the business lifecycle—from day-to-day operations to strategic initiatives and transactions. With years of experience as in-house counsel, she brings a practical, business-first approach grounded in how companies actually operate.

Andrea has served as General Counsel and in senior in-house legal roles across complex, multi-entity organizations. In those roles, she partnered closely with executives and business teams on contracts, corporate governance, regulatory compliance, corporate transactions, employment matters, and disputes—providing legal guidance that supports growth while managing risk.
