Daniel Del Gobbo

Daniel Del Gobbo (he/him) is an Assistant Professor at the University of Windsor Faculty of Law. His research falls at the intersections of civil procedure and dispute resolution, human rights and equality law, restorative justice, legal ethics, and gender and sexuality.

His book, Feminist Frontlines: Campus Sexual Violence and Conflict Resolution, is under contract with the University of Toronto Press.
