About UsThe Corporate Law Center draws upon the outstanding members of Fordham Law School’s business law faculty. Many faculty members hold advanced degrees in business and economics. They had extensive government service and were members of the practicing bar before joining the Law School. This background allows them to integrate theoretical models and practical experience in their scholarship and their teaching.The Center sponsors the following: two public lectures, the Annual Albert A. DeStefano Lecture on Corporate, Securities and Financial Law, and the Annual A. A. Sommer, Jr. Lecture on Corporate, Securities and Financial Law; Policy oriented by-invitation Roundtable Discussions (moderated by a FLS faculty member); The Bi-annual Eugene P. and Delia S. Murphy Conference on Corporate Law that is devoted to in-depth discussions among leading academicians and practitioners of current issues in business law; and an informal lunch time series for students, the Business Law Practitioners’ Series. Prominent members of the bar (many of them distinguished alumni) and prominent business people talk with students about current developments in law as it relates to the world of business. The Center is fortunate to have the support and guidance of a prominent Board of Advisors; many of them are alumni. In this distinguished group are leaders of the practicing bar, business community, federal and state governments, self-regulatory organizations, and the bench. We are most grateful to Paul A. Soden ’68, Chair, for his leadership. |
