Bankrupty Expert David Epstein Moves To Richmond Law

By Dan Filler

David Epstein, a senior member of the Southern Methodist law faculty (as well as the  former dean at Emory and Arkansas and a former colleague of mine at Alabama)  is moving to the University of Richmond Law School to become the George E. Allen Chair.   Epstein has taught at a number of institutions both as a tenured professor and a visitor.  He got his start at UNC, where he was hired by Dean Dickson Phillips - who later became a  Fourth Circuit Judge (and for whom I clerked.)

And no.  George E. Allen is not the the football coach and Senator, but rather a Virginia trial lawyer of some note.
