BLB&G Partner Greg Varallo to Serve as Panelist at UPenn Fall 2023 Legal Humanities Fellowship Program

October 26, 2023

On October 30, 2023, BLB&G Partner Greg Varallo will speak at the sixth session of the University of Pennsylvania’s Fall 2023 Legal Humanities Fellowship Program. Throughout the semester, students have been tasked with exploring societal laws at philosophical, theological, and practical levels, considering the purpose of laws, their sources of authority, and their reach. Greg’s panel, “Business/Corporate Law: Its End, Source, and Scope,” will examine corporate law in its broadest sense. Students will be asked to consider how plaintiffs' attorneys, defense attorneys, and judges understand their practices, the purpose of corporate law and its source of authority, corporate law’s relationship to morality, and when and where the law should step in or step back regarding corporate matters.

Greg heads BLB&G’s Delaware office. His practice focuses primarily on representing institutional investors on matters involving federal and state securities laws, as well as advising creditors on their rights with respect to pursuing affirmative claims. Greg is hailed as one of the nation’s leading business litigators.
