In my experience as a lawyer at tech companies: -bad lawyers creative an antagonist relationship with their internal colleagues in sales and contribute to distrust -good lawyers spend a lot of time learning stuff about their clients (engineering, corp dev, sales, whoever) that seems "tangential" to the fundamental legal issues at first blush -bad lawyers think they know the answer to legal questions facing the company -good lawyers believe no one knows the answers but by combining their knowledge with that of their clients they can arrive at optimal answers
