Caesar Lopez fell in love with the Haub Law Campus immediately upon visiting the school. 鈥淟ocation was an important factor for me. Additionally, I really liked that the Law School had relationships in and around Westchester and NYC with prestigious businesses, firms, and institutions. I ended up with my first job out of Haub Law at Beiersdorf, Inc., a global skincare company. This position would not have been possible without my experience in the externship program at Haub Law.鈥
The positive experiences and memories Caesar has from his time at Haub Law are abundant. 鈥淓xternships were key. I loved my classes in Intellectual Property, Licensing, Entertainment Law, and Business Planning. All of my professors were so passionate about their practice that I enjoyed every single class I took.鈥 Often overlooked, Caesar very much enjoyed the social side of law school. 鈥淚 was able to develop lifelong friends and a meaningful network of exceptional attorneys. The student organization aspect served me well also. I was also one of the four founders of the Pace Intellectual Property Sports and Entertainment Law Forum. This was rewarding because the law school faculty supported us in developing a new platform that piqued my interests in the intersection of law and sports.鈥
As far as favorite professors, Caesar notes, 鈥淚 may date myself, but he was known as Professor Anderson before he was Dean Anderson.鈥
Fast-forward to today, Caesar is the Chief Administrative Officer and General Counsel of Orlando City Soccer Club of Major League Soccer and Orlando Pride of the National Women鈥檚 Soccer League. 鈥淚 oversee all legal, human resources, administration, and government/external affairs.鈥
Now, as an alumnus, Caesar remains very involved with Haub Law. Although he is based in Florida, he is intimately involved in the Alumni Board and willing to chat with any prospective students or current students about their careers. A regular donor to the law school, giving back is very important to him. 鈥淪imply, I like to pay if forward and I believe we all have a duty to help the next generation of students make a difference.鈥
