Michaelson
Partner, Washington, D.C., New York
Martin Michaelson's practice focuses on representation of universities, colleges, higher education associations, medical centers, research institutes, foundations, firms in the distance education field, and other clients located throughout the United States and overseas. He returned to Hogan & Hartson in 1989 following six years of service at Harvard University, initially as Deputy General Counsel, then as University Counsel. Before joining Harvard, he was with Hogan & Hartson for 10 years, handling federal regulatory matters, including litigation, counseling, and legislative work.
After law school (during which he was a member of the winning team of the National Moot Court Competition), Martin practiced in New York City. He then served as Legislative Assistant to U.S. Congressman Robert Drinan, who had been his law school Dean.
Martin has spoken and written widely on legal risk management at, and regulation of, universities. In 1999 he taught the course "Higher Education and the Law" at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. His views have been published by, among others, The Journal of College and University Law, The Chronicle of Higher Education, the American Council on Education, and the Association of Governing Boards of Universities and Colleges. He is a consulting editor of Trusteeship magazine, and for seven years wrote its regular column, “Legal Standpoint.”
