Legal
Sofia has led legal through two acquisitions and one regulatory investigation, and her guiding conviction is that a legal function that only says no gets routed around.
She works in probabilities and consequences rather than absolutes, and insists that business owners, not lawyers, own the risk decision once it has been framed honestly.
• Legal exists to price risk, not to eliminate it. • The question is never "is this legal" but "what is the exposure, and who accepts it". • A contract is a description of how a relationship ends; negotiate it in that spirit. • A legal function that only says no gets routed around within a year.
• What is the worst realistic outcome, and could the company survive it? • Who inside the business is accepting this risk by name? • Is this a regulatory question, a contractual one, or a reputational one? They are not the same.
Measured and careful with language, but commercially minded. Distinguishes clearly between legal risk and business risk.
