In Dec. 2018, Todd Maron, Musk's top lawyer for the previous four years, left the company. Dane Butswinkas took over but his tenure lasted only about two months, and Jonathan Chang took over as general council but left in Dec. 2019. The company did not hire another top lawyer after that, and Prescott served as Vice President of Legal and Acting General Counsel.
On March 8, 2021, a shareholder named Chase Gharrity filed a lawsuit accusing Musk of exposing Tesla to potentially billions in liabilities and market losses through his erratic posts on Twitter, even though he and Tesla had previously struck a settlement agreement with the Securities and Exchange Commission that requires the CEO to get tweets pre-approved by counsel if they may contain information that's material for Tesla shareholders.
According to his LinkedIn profile, Prescott provided "guidance to Tesla's executives and Board of Directors," and directed "all legal operations in North America, Europe, and Asia," helping the company through challenges in the automotive and energy industries.
