In this event, prospective authors have the opportunity to hear directly from LSE Law Review’s editorial board on how to write a good legal article, and what board looks for when reviewing and selecting submissions (which is largely in line with benchmarks used by other student-run legal journals). We have invited editors from both the Articles Team (Journal Publication) and the Notes Team (Blog Publication), as well as previous authors who have made successful submissions, to share their first-hand experience.

The LSE Law Review is a student-run law journal seeking to provide a platform for high quality legal scholarship, with the aim of contributing to debates pertaining to all areas of the law. Our Editorial Board is composed of LSE students from all years of study who are fully responsible for all editorial and organisational decisions in relation to the Review’s publication. We work independently, albeit with the endorsement, of the LSE Department of Law.
LSE holds a wide range of events, covering many of the most controversial issues of the day, and speakers at our events may express views that cause offence. The views expressed by speakers at LSE events do not reflect the position or views of The London School of Economics and Political Science.
