Wake Forest Law Review
The Wake Forest Law Review is a student-run and student-edited journal. Publishing five print issues each year, monthly online articles, and short-form commentary on emerging legal topics, the Law Review contributes to both academic and professional legal discourse.
Annual Symposium
Each year, the Law Review hosts a live Symposium where professors and other legal scholars discuss, debate, and examine a particular area of law. In conjunction with the Symposium, the Law Review publishes an issue containing legal articles authored by the scholars and practitioners who participate in the forum.
Student-Run & Student-Edited
Composed entirely of students selected for excellence in legal research and writing, the Law Review trains its members in rigorous scholarship and editorial precision.
Submissions
The Wake Forest Law Review welcomes article submissions of timely evaluations of current problems in the law.
WFLR Online
The Wake Forest Law Review Online is the digital companion to the Wake Forest Law Review, publishing shorter scholarly works by legal academics and student-authored notes and comments. Focused on emerging and timely issues in the law, it offers rigorous analysis in a more accessible format than the print journal.
