I'm Sam Bleicher.  The Strategic Path LLC is the legal entity for my academic and consulting activities.  (See About Us for full biographical information.) 

Recent Academic Activities -  Beginning in 2007,   I have taught various US law courses and lectured on US law at law schools in the US and abroad, including
     International Trade and WTO (through the University of San Diego Law School Summer Program in Moscow)
     Common Law Legal Reasoning and US Civil Procedure (in Beijing in the Temple U./Tsinghua U. Law School Joint LLM Program and the Chinese National Judges College)
     International Negotiations (at Georgetown University Law School  in Washington, D.C.)

I have also given single lectures on the above subjects and on US Environmental Law and Global Climate Change at law schools in Beijing, Shanghai, Zhengzhou, and Kaifeng, China. 

I have published several short articles on current China topics, which are listed in my full vita, below.  I am available to teach and lecture on these subjects anywhere in the world.


Consulting Activities -  The Strategic Path LLC provides strategic advice on complex problems that do not fall neatly into the domain of one or another established professional discipline. 

My ability to address complex problems stems from my unusually wide range of expertise and experience.  My formal education was followed by a decade as a law professor, 20 years in private law practice, and a decade as a senior State and Federal government official dealing with environmental and foreign affairs issues.          

My most recent governmental post was Chief Strategist for New Initiatives in the State Department’s Overseas Buildings Operations Bureau, which is responsible for the construction and operation of diplomatic facilities in 262 locations around the world. 

Current Consulting Activities for business clients involve initiating negotiations to establish a China-related business partnership.
