Stephanie D. Thacker of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit and the Hon. Katherine Polk Failla of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. \nMateo graduated magna cum laude from Cornell Law School, where he was elected Editor-in-Chief of the Cornell Law Review and served as a Lawyering Program Honors Fellow.  He was also a board member of the Latino American Law Student Association.\n  Senior Associate The Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch, Appellate Litigation 2024 Northern Arizona University  Cornell University Cornell Law School U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin California New York Law Clerk, Hon.
