Introducing Guest Blogger Jonathan Lipson

posted by Dave Hoffman

lipson.JPGI’m pleased to be able to welcome Jonathan Lipson, my colleague at Temple, and noted bankruptcy scholar, as a guest blogger for the month of October. Regular readers will recognize him as our special Bear-bankruptcy-bailout correspondent. Regular readers might also notice that we’ve a large number of guests this month. Our evil plan is coming together quite nicely.

While he’s not spending his time analyzing the bailout for you folks, Jonathan teaches commercial, corporate and bankruptcy law courses, including a deal-based simulation. His research focuses on the norms of non-bankruptcy responses to financial distress. His work includes analyses of secured financing of information technologies, asset securitization and similar transactions, directors’ fiduciary duties to corporate creditors, and constitutional challenges in bankruptcy. He authored the first qualitative empirical study of third-party closing opinions, which was selected for presentation at the 2005 Yale/Stanford Junior Faculty Forum.

Prior to becoming a teacher, Professor Lipson practiced corporate and commercial law in Boston from 1995-1999, with the firm of Hill & Barlow. While in Boston, he was an Adjunct Professor of Law at Northeastern University. From 1992 to 1995, he practiced bankruptcy and commercial law in the New York office of Kirkland & Ellis. From 1990-1992, he practiced with Milbank, Tweed, Hadley & McCloy.

He is active with the Business Law Section of the American Bar Association, where he is Chair of the Publications Board and immediate past Co-Chair of the Committee on Business Law Education. In 2005, he was elected to membership in the American Law Institute. He has previously served as Chair of the Section on Commercial and Related Consumer Law of the American Association of Law Schools. He is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin, B.A., with honors (1986) & J.D. (1990), where he was a note editor of the Wisconsin Law Review.

He has authored over a dozen major articles, which have appeared in some of the nation’s leading journals, including the UCLA Law Review, University of Southern California Law Review, Minnesota Law Review, Wisconsin Law Review, Washington University Law Quarterly, and the Ohio State Law Review. Among other projects, he is currently working on an empirical study of the use of examiners in Chapter 11 bankruptcies, and a book on constitutional issues in bankruptcy. He frequently speaks on these and related subjects, and has been interviewed and quoted in many of the nation’s leading newspapers.

Welcome Jonathan!
