Professor Karl Okamoto was a featured presenter at the Transactional Clinical Conference at the University of Baltimore School of Law on April 29.

Okamoto discussed “Using the Other ‘Case Method’ for Teaching Transactional Skills,” joining law faculty from Northwestern University, the University of Pennsylvania, the University of Missouri at Kansas City and Western New England University School of Law.

The director of the law school’s Business and Entrepreneurship Law Program, Okamoto is a pioneer in incorporating simulations in the teaching of transactional law, and he created the first-ever  Transactional LawMeet in 2010 to give law students an opportunity to test their mastery of deal-making skills.
