David Sclar, health care and compliance privacy officer at WW (formerly Weight Watchers), wanted to write a book that would help a younger version of himself going in-house for the first time.

Sclar first worked at Ropes & Gray, and then entered Pfizer’s legal department on a secondment. He continued to work as an associate at Ropes and Gray, and later as a senior associate at Cooley. He jumped into the in-house world full-time as the second attorney hired for a tech health startup, Rally Health, in 2014. He joined WW’s legal department in August 2020.
