Michael Garson, general counsel at SOS International, has been promoted to take on the additional role of chief legal officer at the Reston, Virginia-based technology and services integrator.
SOSi CEO and previous Wash100 awardee Julian Setian said in a statement released Tuesday the move reflects the expansion of the company’s legal department and Garson’s responsibilities.
“Mike currently oversees our legal, ethics, contracting, supply chain, and security departments and he’s become a trusted and valued member of our executive leadership team,” Setian added.
Garson is a two-decade industry veteran who previously led Strategys Consulting Group as its CEO and worked with national security industry clients during his time at Ankura Consulting as senior managing director.
He also worked at LGS Innovations for more than nine years as executive vice president, chief administrative officer and general counsel.
Earlier in his career, Garson was corporate counsel for the U.S. government solutions business at Lucent Technologies.
