When eSilicon's outside counsel bills began stacking up and the semiconductor maker needed to get serious about preparing to go public, it hired Fritz Koehler as its first GC. CEO Jack Harding says the company even got advice from its outside law firm, Fenwick & West, on creating an in-house legal department. Fenwick attorneys interviewed Koehler and liked him too. "Fenwick was with me in thinking it was time for a GC," said Harding, who says Koehler is eSilicon's "internal champion" for legal affairs.
