Lawrence Kogan possesses more than 25 years
of international business and law experience
counseling public and private clients on
cross-border transactional, planning and
policy matters, enabling recognition of the
legislative, regulatory, policy, and trade
and investment risks and opportunities their
activities may engender. Since 2003, he has
briefed U.S. industry and various U.S.
federal agencies, executive offices and
congressional committees concerning how
emerging foreign environmental, health and
safety, and intellectual property laws,
regulations and technical product standards
are impacting U.S. business' profitability,
technological innovation and international
competitiveness.
To serve the broader interests of these
constituencies, in 2004, he established a
New Jersey-based nonprofit legal research,
educational and advocacy organization (the
Institute for Trade, Standards and
Sustainable Development (ITSSD)). The
ITSSD is a globally recognized NGO for
reporting and analysis of the growing
influence of evolving foreign and
international public interest rules on
private property rights and the American
free enterprise and common law systems.
These educational initiatives led to his
serving, during 2007, as part-time Adjunct
Professor of International Trade Law &
Policy at Seton Hall University's Whitehead
School of Diplomacy and International
Relations, and to his ongoing participation
in U.S. and foreign industry, university and
government. He is also an established author
with numerous internationally referenced
peer-reviewed articles appearing in U.S. and
foreign law, economics, and policy editions,
journals, and news media publications.
Prior to engaging in his currently focused
international law and policy work, Lawrence
served as General Counsel and Chief
Operations Officer of an affiliated group of
U.S.-based textiles products manufacturing
and import-export firms. While functioning
in these capacities, he was responsible for
U.S. and foreign product procurement,
manufacturing, logistics and division sales
operations; he also negotiated, drafted and
oversaw product and intellectual property
licensing, product
representation/distribution, finance and
insurance arrangements, and managed the
integration of once distinct businesses. He
also worked as a senior attorney within the
tax departments of two international public
accounting firms, specializing in
international corporate income and excise
tax and international trade (customs)
transactional, planning and compliance
issues on behalf of multinational clients
operating in the manufacturing, electronics,
banking, insurance, publishing, advertising,
and resort sectors.
Lawrence earned his Masters in Taxation at
Georgetown University Law Center, and is a
graduate of The University of Miami School
of Law and Boston University’s College of
Liberal Arts, where he earned a Bachelors of
Arts in Philosophy/Political Theory.

About Today's Show: |
Ed Sheets is a former
special assistant to the late United States
Senator Warren Magnuson (D-WA). Magnuson
“carried the [Columbia River] treaty[1] through
the White House and the Senate” in 1964 on
behalf of President Lyndon Johnson.[2] With Ed
Sheets’ assistance, the late senator also had
played a considerable role in enacting onerous
and sweeping federal legislation during the
1970’s that supported Indian treaty and cultural
fishing rights, and protected fish, wildlife and
the environment, all at the expense of
irrigators and industry. In other words, Mr.
Sheets is and was a radical environmentalist who
seeks to provide Indian tribes with ongoing
preferences at the expense of irrigators. |

These Magnuson-sponsored
laws included the following: |
