"The Clinical Law Review (ISSN 1079-1159) is a semi-annual peer-edited journal devoted to issues of lawyering theory and clinical legal education. The Review is jointly sponsored by the Association of American Law Schools (AALS), the Clinical Legal Education Association (CLEA), and New York University School of Law. The views expressed in the Review are those of the authors and should not be attributed to the sponsoring organizations, the institutions with which the authors are affiliated, or others.
The Review welcomes unsolicited articles (as well as essays, comments, and other types of shorter pieces) on lawyering, clinical teaching, legal practice, or related subjects. Text and citations should conform to The Bluebook: A Uniform System of Citation (18th ed.). Because the Review employs a system of anonymous peer review of manuscripts as part of its process of selecting articles for publication, manuscripts should not bear the author's name or identifying information."

The Clinical Law Review hold its Clinical Writers’ Workshops at NYU Law School in September of every year. The Workshop provides an opportunity for clinical teachers who are writing about any subject (clinical pedagogy, substantive law, interdisciplinary analysis, empirical work, etc.) to meet with other clinicians writing on related topics to discuss their works-in-progress and brainstorm ideas for further development of their articles. Attendees will meet in small groups organized, to the extent possible, by the subject matter in which they are writing. Each group will “workshop” the draft of each member of the group. Participation in the Workshop requires the submission of a paper because the workshop takes the form of small group sessions in which all members of the group comment on each other’s manuscripts.
Information about the Workshop – including the Registration form, scholarship application form, and information for reserving hotel rooms – is available on-line at: http://www.law.nyu.edu/journals/clinicallawreview/clinical-writers-workshop For more information, contact Randy Hertz at randy.hertz@nyu.edu.
