Job Description
Isaac Clement is a dual-degree candidate pursuing a Juris Doctor and a Master of Science in Financial Planning at the University of Georgia School of Law. His academic work sits at the intersection of financial planning, corporate and banking law, and international commercial transactions, with a particular emphasis on how legal and regulatory frameworks shape cross-border financial decision-making for individuals, businesses, and institutions.
Through his financial-planning coursework, Isaac has developed advanced competency in retirement planning, tax planning, risk management, estate planning, and investment analysis, complementing his legal training in corporate governance, securities regulation, and transactional law. He is especially interested in fiduciary duties, regulatory compliance, and the structuring of international commercial transactions, including the allocation of risk, tax considerations, and regulatory exposure across jurisdictions.
Isaac has gained practical experience through corporate and transactional legal work, including cross-border research and advisory projects involving financial regulation, data privacy, and corporate governance. His professional interests include banking law, wealth management, international commercial transactions, and estate and succession planning, particularly where cross-border assets and multinational clients are involved.
He holds a bachelor’s degree in philosophy, which informs his analytical approach to fiduciary responsibility, ethical decision-making, and complex problem-solving in financial planning and law. Isaac plans to pursue a career that integrates legal practice with financial planning, advising clients on complex domestic and cross-border financial, tax, and governance matters.
