Elizabeth Roseman ’06 Elizabeth Roseman ’06 always knew she wanted to be a lawyer – “from the time I was a kid watching Law & Order,” she reflects. Today, Roseman is a Vice President and Assistant General Counsel at Goldman Sachs & Co., Inc. and one of the Seton Hall Law alumni who are part of Goldman Sachs and its wholly owned subsidiary, The Ayco Company L.P., an investment advisory firm. Their varied roles exemplify the kinds of career opportunities that a Seton Hall Law degree makes possible for those eager to venture beyond the conventional law firm career model. Roseman’s alumni colleagues at Goldman Sachs include Rob Bacon ’00, Bob Emer ’93, Scott Fleisher ’05, Matthew Heckler ’07, Vincent Giliberti ’06, Julian Leone ’04, Karen O’Keeffe ’99, Scott Purrelli ’97, Kimia Mousavi Steed ’11, and Barbara Walters ’96. They bring their expertise and legal knowledge to such fields as employee relations, compliance, operations and an array of investment advisory services. Their stories are as diverse as the positions they fill today, reflecting direct pursuit of the corporate path as well as career changes, military service and unexpected opportunities that have shaped their current success. From her choice of law school to her position in the corporate governance group of the General Counsel’s office, Roseman’s career path was molded by her continuing desire to learn from, and team with, “the best and the brightest.” After graduation, Roseman developed an expertise in executive compensation at the firms of Shearman & Sterling LLP and Sullivan & Cromwell LLP. Roseman’s work with clients piqued her interest in joining an in-house legal department and her network guided her toward the General Counsel’s office at Goldman Sachs. As for Seton Hall Law, Roseman explains, “I wanted to be in an environment where the professors were the best in their fields. Every single graduate, and everyone within the legal community, said, ‘Seton Hall Law has great professors.’ That was more important to me than the curriculum or specific course offerings.” Indeed, Roseman notes, “One of the most important things I learned at Seton Hall Law was the value of your legal network and professional community.” Read more about Seton Hall Law alumni at Goldman Sachs and Ayco Co. at law.shu.edu/goldmansachs.

But during this transitional time, the value of a Seton Hall Law degree continues to rise. Based on new graduate employment in top law firms, the National Law Journal in 2012 again named Seton Hall Law a “Top 50 Go-To Law School,” ranking us at 39th for graduates placed in the nation’s top 250 law firms, and 35th for associates who were promoted to partner within those firms. Our Health Law program, as it has been for the past 16 years, was again ranked by US News & World Report as one of the ten best in the country, this year moving up to number five. Our first-time bar exam pass-rate last summer was again above 90 percent in New Jersey and New York. In New Jersey, our pass rate was more than 12 points higher than the state average, and in New York, more than 12 points higher than all first-time takers and roughly five points higher than all ABA-accredited graduates. Guided by our Board of Visitors and faculty, Seton Hall Law is affirming this commitment to excellence, and despite a recent nationwide decrease of law school applicants, maintaining the high standards we have set for admissions. The result of this decision is that the Class of 2015 is fewer in number than our classes from the past five years. However, their accomplishments and rich life experiences reflect well on Seton Hall Law and the high value we place on intellectual, academic and professional acumen. It has long been a point of pride that Seton Hall Law graduates leave behind their caps and gowns and hit the ground running in courtrooms, boardrooms and halls of government. Mindful of the evolving marketplace, we have further honed our practice-ready curriculum, allowing students to meld their ever-growing store of legal knowledge with hands-on practical applications. In addition, we have enhanced career services and increased our networking resources. These strategic changes will give students, recent graduates and alumni a competitive edge in maximizing their career opportunities. Your career success is also a source of great pride to Seton Hall Law, and our faculty and administration stand ready to help you and fellow alumni reach greater heights. We have strengthened the programs and services available through the Office of Career Services for all – feel free to call on them for professional counsel and guidance. Now in its third year, our Alumni Continuing Legal Education (CLE) Program helps alumni stay current in the law and earn the credits necessary to fulfill our state’s CLE requirements, while offering a chance to connect and confer with former classmates. All of our regional alumni networking events were well attended this year. If you have not already done so, I also encourage you to participate in these programs and in our new alumni professional networking site, www.SetonHallLawConnect.com. During this challenging economic environment, Seton Hall Law remains dedicated to helping our students and alumni achieve their professional aspirations. It is with the continued support of our alumni that Seton Hall Law continues its rise in prominence and prestige within the legal and professional community. Sincerely, Patrick E. Hobbs, Dean Fall 2012 | law.shu.edu 1 Seton Hall Law at work Charting a Path to Career Success at Goldman Sachs, Inc. and The Ayco Company From left to right: Scott Purrelli, Bob Emer, Julian Leone and Elizabeth Roseman “Since I graduated from Seton Hall Law, I’ve come to appreciate just how varied the practice of law can be,” says Elizabeth Roseman ’06, whose career path from private practice at Shearman & Sterling LLP and Sullivan & Cromwell LLP to her role as an Assistant General Counsel at Goldman Sachs, is highlighted on the inside front cover of this magazine. Other Seton Hall Law alumni at The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., and its wholly owned financial counseling subsidiary, The Ayco Company L.P., agree. From administration and compliance, to investment management and financial planning, these alumni appreciate how their Seton Hall Law degrees opened doors for them. 2 Seton Hall Law Magazine Scott Purrelli ’97 Scott Purrelli,Vice President, Counseling at Goldman Sachs Family Office, the Ayco business that serves as personal financial counselors for Goldman Sachs partners, came to Seton Hall Law armed with an undergraduate degree in mathematics/statistics. He says, “Tax seemed like it would be a good fit with my background, and also offered the potential to branch out of the traditional legal field and into the world of finance.” He accepted a New Jersey tax court post-graduation clerkship with the Honorable Peter D. Pizzuto, and the opportunity at Ayco, “a really nice fit with what I was looking for,” arose shortly thereafter. Bob Emer ’93 Bob Emer has had a varied career at Goldman Sachs – exactly his plan, when he decided to attend law school in the early 1990s. Since earning his Seton Hall Law degree, he has served as Vice President, FICC Management & Strategies Group; in the Special Situations Group; as Global Chief Financial Officer for the Business Services in the Corporate Services and Real Estate group; and now as Vice President in the Vendor Management Office. Some of his assignments have had “more connectivity” with the law than others, he says. Still, he concludes, “Law school enhanced my ability to look at a problem from multiple perspectives, especially when the solution is counter-intuitive.” Julian Leone ’04 Julian Leone, Vice President and a Private Wealth Advisor in his sixth year at Goldman Sachs, interned at the State Attorney’s Office during his last year of law school, where he conducted securities-fraud investigations. Soon after, he was recruited by Goldman Sachs to work in its Compliance Division. Recently, he moved to the firm’s Investment Management Division, a transition made smoother by his academic background and his past experience as a tax accountant. “Getting a law degree was like learning a second language, one I use every day in helping our clients navigate the complex investment landscape,” he says. He came to Seton Hall Law when he had already found career success. Yet, he says, “I knew a law degree would open doors. I didn’t know where those doors would lead. I just wanted them From left to right: Matt Heckler, Kimia Mousavi Steed and Vincent Giliberti opened and I was confident that I would be successful with whatever opportunities they offered.” Matt Heckler ’07 Matt Heckler, Senior Financial Planner in his fifth year at Ayco, has a tax and mathematics background. He sought a graduate degree that would enable him to amass skills to “go to the next step,” and decided “a JD would give me the most options,” he says. He now uses his Seton Hall Law-acquired tax expertise to apply Ayco’s philosophy of taking a comprehensive approach to a client’s financial planning needs – both building their portfolios and achieving tax-advantaged results. “Investment performance is only part of the picture,” Heckler says. “When I give a client estate planning advice that leads to significant savings, we monetize the benefit of our services.” Kimia Mousavi Steed ’11 Kimia Steed, Financial Analyst, always knew she wanted to be a corporate lawyer. At Seton Hall Law, she had uncommon opportunities: serving on Circuit Review, and participating in the Impact Litigation Clinic with Professor Jonathan Romberg, where she had the honor of presenting before the Second Circuit, “something many seasoned lawyers never get to do.” Joining Ayco last year “was an unexpected opportunity that allowed me to apply the skills and concepts I learned in law school,” she says. Fall 2012 | law.shu.edu 3 Scott Fleisher and Karen O’Keeffe Vincent Giliberti ’06 Seton Hall Law’s Office of Career Services brought Vin Giliberti, Associate of Financial Planner Development, and Ayco together. “The Ayco recruiter made a compelling point that they were my best option if I wanted to go into the financial industry,” he says. Now he conducts training for financial planners, and enjoys how his legal education is interwoven with his work at Ayco: “When we talk with our clients about tax and estate planning, the law is there. When we advise a client on the benefits of forming an LLC or a partnership, the law is there.” Scott Fleisher ’05 Scott Fleisher, Vice President, Compliance, Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Group, left private practice after a short while and landed at Bear, Stearns & Co. He went on to Citigroup Private Bank to supervise a team responsible for assuring the completeness of annual review packages, and to Pershing LLC, where he also served in AML Compliance before joining Goldman Sachs. Fleisher says his law degree enables him to synthesize facts and to draw and present conclusions concisely. “All divisions come to Compliance,” he says, where his job is to protect the firm and recommend preventative measures. Karen O’Keeffe ’99 Karen O’Keeffe, Vice President, Employee Relations at Goldman Sachs, discovered employment law through Professor Charles Sullivan, taking every course he offered on the subject. Offered a position after graduation at Gibbons P.C., where she had served as a Summer Associate, O’Keeffe was assigned to the employment law group. “I liked helping clients take action to avoid lawsuits, not just defending them after the fact,” she says. She credits her Seton Hall Law ties with her next move; the wife of an alumnus alerted her to the opening in the Employee Relations group at Goldman Sachs. Robert Bacon ’00 After serving in the Army and running a retail business, Rob Bacon, Senior Vice President, Counseling, came to Seton Hall Law to make a career change, targeting Wall Street in M&A, connecting his law degree with his undergraduate degree in finance. But through Robert Bacon Seton Hall Law’s Office of Career Services he encountered Ayco, which turned out to be a great match. “It’s intellectually stimulating,” he says. “We work in so many different areas: estate planning, taxes, investments and insurance, for instance, so there is a lot of variety. The people are phenomenal. We sit down with senior executives and their families and help them plan for the next 20 to 30 years.” Read more about Seton Hall Law alumni at Goldman Sachs and Ayco Co. at law.shu.edu/goldmansachs 4 Seton Hall Law Magazine Seton Hall University School of Law Board of Visitors 2012-13 Louis J. Andreozzi ’84 President & Chief Executive Officer IQNavigator; Chairman, Bloomberg Law Mitch F. Baumeister ’72 (Former Chair) Partner Baumeister & Samuels, PC Frank T. Cannone ’91 Chairman, Corporate Department Gibbons P.C. Inaugural Larson Lecture Featuring David Boies, Esq. On February 1, 2012, Seton Hall Law formally dedicated its newly refurbished Larson Auditorium, made possible by the generous support of Lee and Peter Larson ’74. To mark the occasion, David Boies, Esq., renowned litigator and one of Time magazine’s 100 Most Influential People in the World in 2010, delivered the inaugural Larson Lecture to a large audience of students, faculty, friends, alumni and judges. During the lecture, “The Role of an Attorney in American Society Today,” Boies noted the many privileges and opportunities the legal profession offers attorneys and observed, “With those privileges come responsibilities, because each of us has a responsibility not only to our individual clients, but to the justice system itself.” Boies extolled the virtues of the United States’ legal system, remarking, “It is the ability to decide the most important issues facing our society – in court – peacefully and under the rule of law — that distinguishes this society from so many that have gone before it.” At the dedication, Mr. Larson said that he intended for the Larson Lecture series to continue and hoped that the Larson Auditorium would “be a place where the spirit of civil discourse is alive, well and consistently observed.” He continued, “By which we mean a commitment to listen thoughtfully, respond respectfully and recognize that even smart people can have a different and responsible point of view about an issue.” The Seton Hall Law Community looks forward to continued dialogue on issues of national importance through the Larson Lecture Series.

Hartnett ’55 Deborah Hay ’11 Katharine S. Hayden ’75 Jonathan Henry ’08 John Henschel ’84 Gary Herschman James V Hetzel ’86 Ronald Hewitt ’05 Elizabeth Roseman ’06 Elizabeth Roseman ’06 always knew she wanted to be a lawyer – “from the time I was a kid watching Law & Order,” she reflects. Today, Roseman is a Vice President and Assistant General Counsel at Goldman Sachs & Co., Inc. and one of the Seton Hall Law alumni who are part of Goldman Sachs and its wholly owned subsidiary, The Ayco Company L.P., an investment advisory firm. Their varied roles exemplify the kinds of career opportunities that a Seton Hall Law degree makes possible for those eager to venture beyond the conventional law firm career model. Roseman’s alumni colleagues at Goldman Sachs include Rob Bacon ’00, Bob Emer ’93, Scott Fleisher ’05, Matthew Heckler ’07, Vincent Giliberti ’06, Julian Leone ’04, Karen O’Keeffe ’99, Scott Purrelli ’97, Kimia Mousavi Steed ’11, and Barbara Walters ’96. They bring their expertise and legal knowledge to such fields as employee relations, compliance, operations and an array of investment advisory services. Their stories are as diverse as the positions they fill today, reflecting direct pursuit of the corporate path as well as career changes, military service and unexpected opportunities that have shaped their current success. From her choice of law school to her position in the corporate governance group of the General Counsel’s office, Roseman’s career path was molded by her continuing desire to learn from, and team with, “the best and the brightest.” After graduation, Roseman developed an expertise in executive compensation at the firms of Shearman & Sterling LLP and Sullivan & Cromwell LLP. Roseman’s work with clients piqued her interest in joining an in-house legal department and her network guided her toward the General Counsel’s office at Goldman Sachs. As for Seton Hall Law, Roseman explains, “I wanted to be in an environment where the professors were the best in their fields. Every single graduate, and everyone within the legal community, said, ‘Seton Hall Law has great professors.’ That was more important to me than the curriculum or specific course offerings.” Indeed, Roseman notes, “One of the most important things I learned at Seton Hall Law was the value of your legal network and professional community.” Read more about Seton Hall Law alumni at Goldman Sachs and Ayco Co. at law.shu.edu/goldmansachs.
