Louisiana Law Review

Louisiana Law Review The official page for Louisiana Law Review - a leader in comparative and Louisiana law. Hebert Law Center at Louisiana State University.

Founded in 1938, the Louisiana Law Review has served as Louisiana's flagship legal journal at the Paul M. The Law Review currently ranks in the top 200 student-edited journals, and among the top 100 journals for the highest number of cases citing to a law review. The mission of the Louisiana Law Review is two-fold. First, the Law Review endeavors to further the positive development of the law by p

resenting the highest quality of legal scholarship to the legal community. This objective is accomplished through publication of leading articles, legal essays, practitioners’ notes, and book reviews prepared and submitted by scholars, jurists, and practitioners from across the state, around the country, and throughout the world. Second, the Louisiana Law Review seeks to engender in the best students of the LSU Law Center a desire to further distinguish themselves through exercises in intense legal research, analysis, and writing. In furtherance of this objective, the Law Review provides associates and members with a forum in which to make unique contributions to the discipline through publication of student-written comments and case notes on issues of contemporary significance. Please visit the Louisiana Law Review website, http://lawreview.law.lsu.edu, for more information regarding submissions and publication information.
