The LABF is pleased to welcome Professor Robert K. Rasmussen of USC Law School as our speaker at the seventeenth annual Joseph Bernfeld Distinguished Speakers Program.
"The Genius of American Restructuring Law"
There is a famous phrase in academic circles about the “genius of American corporate law.” The story, in that legal setting, is that Delaware in general, and the Delaware courts in particular, have created a system that provides high-quality corporate law. Professor Rasmussen tells a similar story about restructuring law, though here the heroes are the attorneys.
Professor Rasmussen is the J. Thomas McCarthy Trustee Chair in Law and Political Science, and served as dean of USC Law School from 2007 to 2015. Professor Rasmussen’s scholarly expertise is focused on the interaction of market forces and corporate reorganization law, and his most recent work addresses fundamental changes in corporate reorganization practice. He teaches: Advanced Secured Transactions, Business Bankruptcy, Contracts, International Insolvency, Realities of Commercial Lending, Sovereign Distress, and Syndicated Lending.
