Professor Fitzgerald teaches Contracts I & II, International Business Transactions, International Trade Regulation, and International Trade and the Environment. He was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Research Fellow at the Centre for Studies in Intellectual Property and Information Technology Law at the University of Edinburgh School of Law in Scotland, and has also taught at the George Washington University Law School as well as in the Scandinavian/Baltic Institute on Emerging Markets and Transitional Democracies summer program in Tallinn, Estonia, and the Innsbruck Institute on World Legal Problems summer program in Austria. Professor Fitzgerald is also a recipient of the "Golden Apple" Teaching Award, the Homer and Dolly Hand Award for Excellence in Faculty Scholarship, and the Outstanding Faculty Service Award.
Licensed to practice law both in the United States and the United Kingdom, prior to joining Stetson’s faculty Professor Fitzgerald spent fifteen years in-house with the IBM Legal Department, serving as counsel to the IBM Export Regulation Office in Washington D.C. as well as at IBM's corporate headquarters in New York and its European headquarters in Paris, France, and at regional sales and manufacturing locations in Maryland and Georgia. Professor Fitzgerald writes and speaks widely on international trade and technology matters, and is a co-author of a leading casebook on International Business Transactions. He appeared before the congressionally created Judicial Review Commission on Foreign Assets Control, and was also invited to provide evidence to both the Swedish Foreign Ministry's Ad Hoc Working Group on Legal Safeguards and Targeted Sanctions, and to the British House of Lords' Economic Affairs Committee’s Inquiry into the Impact of Economic Sanctions. Additionally, the U.S. Trade Representative appointed Professor Fitzgerald to the NAFTA bi-national Chapter 19 Panel Roster, and he subsequently served as an arbitral judge on two separate bi-national dispute resolution panels established under the NAFTA agreement.
Professor Fitzgerald is also active in Golden Retriever Rescue of Mid-Florida and shares an office with "Hamish," a certified therapy dog who visits at local hospitals and nursing homes.
