About Christopher

Christopher Czerwonka is a New York licensed attorney and Special Professor of Law at the Maurice A. Deane School of Law at Hofstra University, where he has taught Bioethics and the Law, Public Health Law, Policy and Ethics, and The ADA: Statutory Interpretation (a course he
developed for the law school) in the online LLM/MA program. He also lectures worldwide on disability law and anti-discrimination advocacy, and practices in these areas, immigration law, public benefits, and general and special education law. He is an appointed member of the Ethics Review Committee at Albany Medical Center.
He additionally holds an appointment as a Research Fellow at the Center for Policy Research at the
Rockefeller College of Public Affairs and Policy, SUNY Albany, where he researches and lectures on public consciousness of Constitutional rights, and on issues of subordinated identity and the law.
In 2014, the President of the New York State Bar Association appointed him to serve on the
State Bar Committee on Disability Rights, on which he served through 2020. In that capacity, he
was one of the chief advisers to the Bar on such matters.
He has also worked with the Transgender Legal Defense & Education Fund in New York,
working on legal name-change cases and on anti-discrimination litigation, mostly involving
health insurance refusals to cover gender confirmation surgery for transgender clients. A
nationally recognized authority on intersections between disability and LGBT law, he has
consulted pro bono for the Lambda Legal Defense & Education Fund, advising on test case
litigation and leading a strategy seminar on this topic for all of Lambda's offices, and has been
highlighted by the National LGBT Bar Association for his expertise and outstanding
contributions to this subfield.
Prof. Czerwonka is committed to civic education for all young people. In that spirit, he was
appointed in 2016 to the New York State Bar Committee on Law, Youth and Citizenship and its
Mock Trial Committee, where he co-wrote that year’s high school mock trial tournament
problem, Robin Berkman v. County of Dover. Additionally, he lectures on the Constitution and
other civic and historical topics to elementary school-aged students.
In his life away from the law, he is an accomplished (though semi-retired) singer and devotes
time to community organizations.

About the lesson

Lessons with me are NEVER mere lecture sessions at which students are expected to passively "receive information." Rather, my lessons, from standardized test prep to law school courses to the Bar Exam, involve immersive, simulation-based learning involving hypotheticals and targeted questions. My students have consistently told me they value this approach, which makes them accountable stakeholders and partners in their own learning.
