Katherine Beck, Greenberg Traurig
Background: Beck concentrates her practice on corporate and securities law, mergers and acquisitions, and private equity investments. Beck has deep experience in capital markets transactions, including public and private offerings of equity and debt securities. She regularly advises public companies on mergers and acquisitions as well as on compliance with SEC reporting requirements, stock exchange listing rules and general corporate matters.
Source of pride: “I’m proud to have remained in law despite its demands. Balancing long hours and family life can be challenging, but growth came with it. Becoming a shareholder was a milestone, and mentoring associates has been deeply rewarding. Seeing their growth reminds me why I chose this path.”
Professional advice: “Make it known what you want and go for it. As a woman in law, it’s easy to be redirected, but you can still have what you want. With clarity and resilience, you can lead, raise a family and define success on your own terms — without waiting for permission.”
Surprising fact: “I hold a first-degree recommended black belt in Taekwondo.”
