Bio:
Andrew Schwartz teaches and publishes on Contracts, Corporations and other aspects of business law.
A native New Yorker, Professor Schwartz studied Civil Engineering at Brown University and then attended Columbia Law School, where he served on the Columbia Law Review and assisted the late Professor E. Allan Farnsworth on his leading Contracts treatise. At Columbia, he was awarded the Class of 1912 Prize for Contracts, earned a Certificate of Achievement from the Parker School of Foreign and Comparative Law, and was thrice named a James Kent Scholar.
Prior to joining the Colorado Law faculty, Professor Schwartz clerked for Judge William A. Fletcher of the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit and Judge Naomi Reice Buchwald of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, practiced for several years with Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz, a leading global business law firm based in midtown Manhattan, and lectured at UC Berkeley School of Law. He is admitted to practice in New York and before the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
