THE BRIDGE
──────
From law firm practice
to the classroom, and back
Drawing on my years in practice, I bring the realities of law firm life into my courses at Columbia Law School and NYU School of Law: demanding clients facing their own pressures, tight deadlines, challenging opposing counsel, and fee constraints.
What I learn in the classroom flows back to law firms, through programs for their junior lawyers and coaching for their leaders.
