During a summer that saw a lot of career moves at prominent law departments, New York-based American Express Company hired accomplished in-house attorney Laureen Seeger as its general counsel. Seeger left her job in June at McKesson Corporation, the largest health care services company in North America, to take the position at Amex.

“Like McKesson, American Express is guided by a deep set of values, starting with a fundamental commitment to making a positive difference in people’s lives through its products and services,” Seeger said in a statement. “I look forward to helping American Express realize its vision to become the world’s most respected service brand in my capacity as general counsel.”
