Albertina Antognini is a Professor of Law at the University of Arizona where she teaches Family Law, Property, Trusts & Estates, and a seminar on the laws that shape the contemporary American family. She is co-director of the Family and Juvenile Law Certificate Program. Professor Antognini will be in Sweden on a Fulbright in the Fall of 2022 and on sabbatical leave in the Spring of 2023.

Professor Antognini’s research examines how the law regulates intimate relationships and explores the distributive consequences that follow; her recent work considers the various ways that marriage continues to influence the law of nonmarriage.  In 2021, Professor Antognini received the UA College of Law’s Distinguished Early Career Scholar Award, and her scholarship has been twice selected for the Yale/Stanford/Harvard Junior Faculty Forum. Her pieces have been published in the Stanford Law Review, Boston University Law Review, and UC Davis Law Review, among others. Professor Antognini is a contributing editor to JOTWELL’s Family Law section, and a founding co-organizer of the Roundtable on Nonmarriage and the Law.

Professor Antognini received her J.D., cum laude, from Harvard Law School and her B.A., with honors and distinction in Comparative Literature, from Stanford University, where she was awarded the Robert M. Golden Medal for her thesis on phenomenology and Italian literature. In 2010, she clerked for the Honorable Rosemary S. Pooler of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. Prior to joining the UA College of Law, Professor Antognini was a Thomas C. Grey Fellow at Stanford Law School and an Assistant Professor at the University of Kentucky College of Law.
