After graduating from Berkeley Law School and kickstarting her career at elite international law firm Greenberg Traurig—representing large companies — coach Corpion has since launched her own innovative law firm, CORPlaw. CORPlaw helps modern entrepreneurs grow and protect their business and specializes in working with locally owned small business owners.
