Aviation services company Bristow Group Inc. has landed former General Electric Co. in-house leader Victoria Lazar as its next general counsel, vice president and corporate secretary. 

Lazar succeeds Timothy Knapp, who departed the Houston-based company last year as part of a restructuring effort to reduce costs. The Bristow Group’s deputy general counsel, Bo Underwood, took over as acting GC in the wake of Knapp’s exit.
