A Discussion with Courtney Hall Wednesday, April 7 at 6:00 p.m.    Cardozo Sports Law Society and FAME are proud to announce a conversation with Courtney Hall about how sports, law, data and business can intersect in the modern world. After playing football at Rice and earning a degree in economics and management studies, Mr. Hall played 8 seasons for the NFL’s San Diego Chargers as an offensive lineman, mainly at center. Following his football career, he earned his JD and MBA from the University of Chicago Law School and Booth School of Business. After earning his JD/MBA, Mr. Hall worked as a lawyer and as an investment banker before he co-founded EXACT Sports Science, a predictive analytics platform that analyzes athlete performance potential using statistical and physiological data.Mr. Hall then went on to co-found Hillcrest Venture Partners, where he is Managing Director. Hillcrest invests in companies that are in the seed to growth stage of development, meaning they have less than $15 million in revenue, especially those that are undergoing transformational changes in their business. Mr. Hall focuses on investments in enterprise applications, financial technology and wireless and has managed investments in the energy sector as well.   We are very excited to have Mr. Hall speak with us as part of our 2021 symposium.

The Antitrust Society is hosting an event that will explain to the students the unique space in the antitrust laws that the sports industry has occupied and discuss the current NCAA v. Alston case pending before SCOTUS.

Cardozo Alumni will discuss how to plan a career in the law while achieving your personal goals. Panelists include: Stephanie A. Zacharias '08 (Cane & Boniface, P.C.), Melissa Paul-Franklyn '08 (The Legal Aid Society), Patricia Zapata Schiraldi '17 (Federal Law Clerk, E.D.N.Y.), and Bernardo Caceres '20 (Queens Defenders).  

Cardozo NLG Present When: Tuesday, April 6, 2021 @ 6PM EST Evidence law -- as a body of rules that govern admissibility -- purports itself to be a system whose precepts are race neutral. But this is far from the case. And perhaps it shouldn't be the case. Perhaps, we don't even need rules at all. Cardozo NLG is proud to present a powerful panel of three lauded evidence scholars whose work challenges probes the issue of how race is inextricable from the facially-neutral propositions that undergird evidence law and how these consequences play out in courtrooms and the carceral system: Professor I. Bennett Capers (Fordham), Professor Andrea Dennis (UGA), and Professor Jasmine Gonzales Rose (BU). The panel will be moderated by Cardozo's own Professor Ngozi Okidegbe.

Cardozo Law Review is excited to host a diverse panel of practitioners from various areas within the legal industry for a discussion about business development for attorneys. The panelists will reflect on their own journeys and advise law students and attorneys on how they can help develop their careers by being conscious of business development skills, skills which are often overlooked in the law school curriculum.   We anticipate insight and perspective on a variety of topics, including effective means for bringing in business, how social media has changed the way attorneys seek business, how to build relationships with clients, how young attorneys can maximize their personal skill sets, and a few other topics our panelists will cover relating to business development. Essentially, the main theme the panelists will grapple with is what law students and attorneys should be focusing on to create value, regardless of whether they join an established firm or start their own practice.   Panelists: Stephanie Everett: President, LawyeristPhillip C.
