What I Teach

Subjects Available for Fall 2026

I can teach across law, mathematics, and related fields. My credentials are real-world — a practicing attorney and mathematician, not an academic generalist. Every subject I offer, I know from the inside.

Business Law
Contracts, business formation, commercial transactions — from practice, not textbooks
Legal Studies
The American legal system, court structure, rights, and procedure
Law & Economics
Columbia coursework + Milbank Fellowship — the intersection of legal and financial reasoning
Law & Automation
How LLMs and AI are transforming legal practice, jurisprudence, and bureaucracy — economics, ethics, and what it means for the profession
Mathematics
From algebra through calculus — Stuyvesant-trained, Stony Brook degree
Statistics
Quantitative methods, data analysis — applied throughout my legal career
In the Classroom

How I Teach

High Energy
I am a performing musician. I have given speeches and run panels at international conferences. I am comfortable on a stage — and I bring that energy to a classroom. I don't cover material. I make it impossible to look away.
⚖️
Real-World Grounding
Every concept I teach has a real case, a real contract, a real court filing behind it. I've worked at Paul Weiss, Cadwalader, and in federal litigation. Students get the inside view, not the textbook version.
🧮
Rigorous Thinking
Stuyvesant and Stony Brook mathematics trained me to think precisely. Whether I'm teaching law or calculus, I push students toward real understanding — not memorization, not shortcuts.

Research

Robotics Intelligence

Alongside my teaching work, I track the companies, technologies, and market structure behind the rise of physical AI — humanoids, drones, industrial automation, and the supply chain building the next decade of the real-world economy.

Built for accredited investors, family offices, and founders seeking private robotics deal flow. My framework: what painful real-world job does this robot do, who pays for it, and why does it work now?

Deployment Ladder
Viral Demo — controlled environment
Controlled Pilot — real customer, not yet proof
Paid Deployment — robot doing a real job
Scaled Revenue — renewals, defensible economics
Goldman Sachs projects humanoids at $38B by 2035. Morgan Stanley models $5T by 2050. The investable opportunities may not be the headline robots — they may be the boring suppliers who win regardless of which body prevails.

Background

About Zeev

I am an attorney and mathematician based in New York City. I attended Stuyvesant High School, studied mathematics and biology at Stony Brook University, and earned my J.D. from Columbia Law School, where I was awarded the Milbank Fellowship in Law and Economics.

My legal career has spanned corporate bankruptcy during the financial crisis (Lehman Brothers, Bear Stearns), securities and derivatives litigation at Paul Weiss and Labaton Sucharow, IP licensing, venture fund advising, and cryptocurrency compliance work dating back to 2013.

I am also a performing musician — multi-instrumentalist, comfortable on a stage, and genuinely energized by teaching ideas to people who want to understand them. That is why I am pursuing teaching now. I have been doing it informally my entire career.

"I have spent fifteen years explaining complex things to non-experts under high stakes. That is what good teaching is."
