 Mark Denbeaux, a professor law at Seton Hall  Law School, is Of Counsel to the firm of Denbeaux & Denbeaux.  He is one of Seton Hall's most senior members and is also the Director of the Seton Hall Law School Center for Policy and Research, which is best known for its dissemination of the internationally recognized series of reports on the Guantánamo Bay Detention Camp. Professor Denbeaux's interest in the conditions of detainment arose from his representation of two detainees there.

Professor Denbeaux primarily teaches Contracts and is well -known for his use of the Socratic Method. While Professor Denbeaux also teaches evidence, his seminars, which arise out of his interest in the admissibility of "pseudo-science" in trials, comprise his most popular upper-class offerings. Most recently, he has focused upon the unique problems surrounding the testimony of those who profess to be forensic scientists.

Professor Denbeaux's seminar studies forensic evidence. The course evaluates the reliability of forensic document examiners who testify as to handwriting identification, fingerprint identification, ballistics, tool marks, blood spatter, bite marks and other crime scene forensic evidence and witnesses. The study of these areas includes an evaluation of the reliability and validity of each area's conclusions, the value of each area's proficiency testing, and the methodology upon which the conclusions are reached. In order to fully evaluate forensic evidence, The Center has become a crime laboratory and has taken the proficiency tests requisite to do so, has given opinions about the methodology used by specific forensic fields in court, and has written reports that have been used in court proceedings. A significant part of the seminar includes participating in these projects. Professor Denbeaux has spoken on the subject of forensic science at dozens of academic gatherings and has testified as an expert witness on the limitations of forensic evidence more than fifty times in state and federal courts as well as in administrative proceedings.

Professor Denbeaux graduated from the College of Wooster and New York University School of Law. He was a staff attorney and then coordinator of New York City litigation for the New York City Legal Services Program. Thereafter he joined the Seton Hall Law School faculty. During his career at Seton Hall Law School he served as a Director and then the Chair of the Board of the New York City Legal Services Corporation.
