INFORMATION FOR AUTHORS

The Virginia Law & Business Review currently publishes twice a year, once during the Fall and Spring semester. We welcome submissions in the form of articles, essays, comments, and book reviews from judges, professors, practitioners, and law clerks on a rolling basis. However, at this time we only consider student notes from University of Virginia students. Please see the Notes page for submission information.

We strongly prefer articles under 20,000 words, including footnotes. Manuscripts under 10,000 words, including footnotes, are generally reviewed as essays or comments. We strongly prefer book reviews under 5,000 words, including footnotes.

FORMAT

Manuscripts should use Times New Roman 12 inch font, double line spacing, one-inch margins and be numbered at the bottom center of each page. All footnotes should be in conformance with The Blue Book: A Uniform System of Citation.
