Reviews of professor Michael Lampert

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
This is by far the worst class I have taken in Law School. There was an optional rough draft that you could submit and I did. I made all of the changes he wanted. Still received a B- in an uncurved 20 person class. A lot of other students got below B-. I tried to go to the school about him, but they said nothing could be done. Please avoid.

He is a walking encyclopedia, which makes his class fun. He gives a lot of freedom in your paper topic, but he makes clear that you should implement what you learned from the readings and class discussions into your draft. I found that the instructions were clear and the paper was not overwhelming. Keep up with the reading, and you will be fine.

The time spent in class is a waste of time that you can never reclaim. The class is not a writing requirement and for 2 credits the 15 page minimum paper is too much to write in a class where you learn nothing from the professor. Stear clear.

Lampert is really smart but the class is pointless, you wont learn anything and it doesn't count as a writing credit. The only assignment is a 20 page paper on literally any topic related to in-house counsel. You can submit a rough draft and he'll comment on it. It's not hard but time consuming and you wont receive feedback on the final paper.
