Alan has been an attorney with Outside GC since 2006.
Alan Roth's wide and deep experience with closely and publicly-held, well-established and start-up, for-profit and non-profit businesses in many industries has enabled him to consistently close deals for his clients on the best possible terms.
While with Outside GC, Alan worked intensively for a large discount retail chain as part of its effort to address its security issues, successfully negotiating numerous vendor contracts under tight deadlines and difficult circumstances. For L-1 Identity Solutions, Inc.'s Secure Credentialing Division, the market leader in driver's licenses and passports, Alan has negotiated from the other side of the table, selling services to many state DMVs and other government units in the US and abroad.
Before joining Outside GC, Alan was VP and GC at Cambridge Technology Enterprises, a high-tech incubator that spun off companies including Cambridge Technology Partners, i-Cube, OneWave, and C-Bridge Internet Solutions. In addition to corporate governance and operational matters, Alan's specialty was working closely with the sales departments of start-ups to close contracts on profitable terms with customers in the US and abroad that were generally vastly larger in size. Prior to CTE, Alan was an associate with Bingham McCutcheon and Hemenway and Barnes in Boston.
Alan graduated Amherst College magna cum laude, has a master's degree in Journalism from Columbia University, and took his JD at Stanford Law School.
His pro bono activities include obtaining 501(c)(3) status for PTOs in Newton, Massachusetts and incorporating and advising Theatre Ink, Newton North High School's award-winning teaching and theater program. He is a recipient of the Denis Maguire Pro Bono Award from the Boston Bar Association.
He lives in Newton with his wife and two boys, who have mysteriously become much taller than him.
