Faculty Profiles

Outstanding intellectual leadership and scholarship from a law school faculty are expected. At New York Law School, students enjoy something more: a dynamic group of teachers with extensive professional and public policy accomplishments. 

Most faculty members have had significant prior experience in legal practice: as public defenders, corporate lawyers, jurists, in government, and as advocates for the public interest. This rich store of real-world experience enables students to better understand the law from the perspective of the practicing attorney.
