The University of Memphis Law Review is a student-run organization whose primary purpose is to publish a journal of legal scholarship. The Law Review is published four times per year, and is roughly 750 pages per volume. Student editors make all editorial decisions and, together with a faculty advisory, carry out the vision of the publication. We expect the first Issue of Volume 56 to be published in early 2026.

The Law Review is an important academic forum for legal scholarship, publishing articles by professors, judges, and practitioners from around the country. Additionally, the journal is designed to be an effective research tool for practicing lawyers and students of the law. The Law Review also provides opportunities for student editors to develop their own editing and writing skills.

All articles—even those by the most respected authorities—are subjected to a rigorous editorial process designed to sharpen and strengthen substance and tone.
