    Lifetime Achievement Award: Jerry Goldfeder

    0
    By bwieboldt on October 21, 2019 Faculty, In the News

    Professor Jerry Goldfeder was honored with New York Law Journal’s Lifetime Achievement Award to recognize his 40 years of service as a dedicated teacher, tenacious litigator, prolific author, bar association leader, and national expert on election and campaign finance law.

    It’s more than his teaching that makes him stand out. On his own time, Jerry organizes trips to Washington, D.C., for students to meet with Supreme Court Justices, U.S. Senators, and Members of Congress, and he participates with students in seminars and panel discussions on a variety of election-related topics.

    It is no wonder, then, that Fordham Law School students voted him Adjunct Professor of the Year in 2015 and then again in 2019—and of course that he received this NYLJ Lifetime Achievement Award.

    Over the course of Jerry’s 40 years in practice, his name has become synonymous with New York election law. As many say, he literally wrote the book used by so many lawyers and judges—Goldfeder’s Modern Election Law, now in its fifth edition. For the last dozen years as a special counsel at Stroock & Stroock & Lavan, he has become one of a handful of go-to practitioners, representing candidates for local and statewide office, U.S. Congress, and President of the United States.
