The Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC) is a global bar association that promotes the common professional and business interests of in-house counsel who work for corporations, associations and other private-sector organizations through information, education, networking opportunities and advocacy initiatives. ACC's advocacy initiatives aim to raise the status of in-house counsel within the legal profession and address legal issues where in-house counsel have a unique perspective.

ACC is working to get the issue of legal professional privilege (LPP) for in-house counsel addressed at the EU level, so that in-house counsel of EU member states exercise the same rights as outside counsel in proceedings before the European Commission.
