Lisa Jerde Spillman
Partner, Investment Management, General Counsel Services, Sterlington Law
Based out of Wyoming and also licensed in California, I am a Sterlington Law partner focusing on investment management, regulatory matters, business creation and support, and crypto and digital assets. I am also a Board member of a regulated Crypto trading company.
Before joining Sterlington, I served as General Counsel for the State Treasurer's Office of Wyoming which manages over $25 billion in assets. As part of my GC responsibilities, I was responsible for regulatory oversight of investment matters and oversaw the legal side of the State's investments. I also served as Senior Assistant Attorney General in Wyoming and practiced for 10 years before that in California. With nearly 20 years of legal experience in the private and government sectors, my experience spans setting up LLCs, helping clients navigate regulatory and compliance reviews, and advocating on behalf of clients with government agencies and the Legislature. I have also worked for three federal judges and argued 46 appeals.
I earned a J.D. magna cum laude from Chapman University Fowler School of Law, a Master of Clinical Psychology from Antioch University, a B.S. in Business from the University of Minnesota Carlson School of Management, and a Master of Finance from Colorado State University Global.
I am a member of the American College of Investment Counsel, President of the Laramie County Bar Association, and Board Member of Family Promise Cheyenne, a nonprofit helping homeless and low-income families achieve sustainable independence.
I work smart, I work hard, and I enjoy time away from the office in the mountains, woods, and sea. I am a business partner, a mom, wife, and friend. I am a trusted resource. If I say I'm going to do it, I'll do it.
