194 | Kevin Lashley | ![]() |
Active | Paralegal | Equityzen | Mid Level Corporate Paralegal | I am a Corporate Paralegal with ten years’ experience in both the compliance and litigation fields. If given the opportunity, I am confident that you will find that I am extremely capable, hard-working, possess a “no-job-too-small attitude,” and a desire to both learn and thrive in a fast-paced environment. At Contour Global PLC, I was a Legal and Compliance Analyst reporting to the General Counsel, Secretary, and Chief Compliance Officer of the company. My day-to-day entailed assisting executive management with the creation of executive presentations, the tracking of internal Key Performance Indicators (“KPIs”), external vendors management with the assistance of the finance department, the project management of key corporate initiatives, the management of corporate entities and special ad hoc projects. In my role as a Corporate Paralegal at Contour Global, I assisted the executive management team with a number of tasks integral to proper management of the company. During my time there, I demonstrated the flexibility and commitment needed to thrive in the position and was given more responsibilities as colleagues left the company. For example, due to tremendous turnover in the Internal Control department and my professional manner in collecting and presenting the internal KPIs for Legal and Compliance, I was asked to maintain KPIs for Internal Control as well until a replacement was hired. The KPIs were important as they were reported to the CEO and CFO of the company and related to due diligence of important corporate documents. I was able to manage the transition of the project to me upon short notice to ensure that there were no gaps in the data and that the information was reported timely and accurately, which was appreciated by the Executive Team. As a result, Internal Control never hired the additional resource and asked me to continue to manage the assignment along with all my other projects. My team at Contour Global made it clear that they valued my work and commitment; however, there was no ability for me to grow vertically within the company. As a result, I was offered the opportunity to work as a temp-to-perm Analyst at Levine Leitchman Capital Partners. At Levine Leitchman, I assisted Compliance Counsel with the review and negotiation of non-disclosure agreements, reviewing confidential investment information, management of the Company’s restricted list, and maintenance of confidential documentation until destruction. Unfortunately, at the end of the year, I was informed that they were restructuring the New York office and could no longer offer me a permanent position. Through all of this, including my brief time at Levine, I have tested my skills and know that I will be an asset if hired. Beyond the strategic experience I've outlined here, it is important to know I am someone who constantly strives to improve systems, learn and iterate with flexibility. I would love to bring these skills and this energy to the benefit of our shared values. Thank you for your time and consideration. | Resume | New York | Yes | Commercial Contracts | Contract ManagementContract NegotiationsCorporate GovernanceData Privacy AddendumsInvestor RelationsPrivate Investment FundsGDPR | Capital Markets, Private Investment Funds, GDPR, Due Diligence, Data Privacy Addendums, Corporate Transactions, Contract Negotiations, Contract Management, Financial Services, Public Companies | https://www.linkedin.com/in/kevin-lashley-4a978627/ | 30-70 | No Law School | English | 5-15 Years | No Graduate | kevlashl@gmail.com | 20 - 30 | I am a avid gardener and am very interested in financial markets.
