I recently presented to the Corporate & Securities Law Committee of the Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC) on the topic entitled “Behind the SEC Curtain: Practical Tips for Interacting with the SEC Staff.”

The presentation offered practical tips from me, a former SEC staffer, on the following topics:

• How to interact with the SEC staff

• The screening and review process for registration statements

• Periodic reports and proxies

• Recent areas of focus

• Current developments at the Commission and staff
