Manuscript Editing for Connecticut Law Review Journal Articles
The Connecticut Law Review is a journal of general legal scholarship and the oldest, largest, and most active student organization at the University of Connecticut School of Law. It aims to publish a high quality journal of interest to the general legal community. It welcomes manuscripts on law and law-related topics, which need not be specific to Connecticut.
Each submission includes a Microsoft Word manuscript, a brief abstract, and a CV or resume, and a cover letter is optional. Citations follow The Bluebook and The Chicago Manual of Style, in footnotes, with the text double-spaced. Gender-neutral language is encouraged. Legal professionals and educators from any institution may submit, and students may submit only if enrolled at UConn School of Law. Members of the Review handle article selection. Our law review editing tightens the abstract and applies both manuals throughout. Submissions go through Scholastica, which is strongly preferred, and email is also accepted.
Our Promise
We will ensure that the final draft you receive is completely ready to submit to Connecticut Law Review. We work with you until it is ready or refund your payment in full. That commitment has held since 2002.
Our editors do not have access to your manuscript until an order is placed. Your draft is secure until you decide to proceed.
Manuscript Editing and Proofreading for the Connecticut Law Review
We offer three levels of manuscript editing depending on what your manuscript needs. Each is described below so you can choose the service that fits where your draft is right now.
Grammar and usage, awkward phrasing, repetition, and passive voice corrected, then clarity, concision, sentence structure, transitions, and tone, with your style manual applied throughout and a final proofread. For authors whose argument and structure are settled.
Clarity, emphasis, and paragraph structure: topic sentences, transitions, and sentences reordered within a paragraph, with every fact and claim kept as you wrote it. Includes copy editing and a final proofread.
Spelling, punctuation, typos, capitalization, grammar, and usage corrected with minimal wording changes, for manuscripts that have been edited and need a last check before submission to Connecticut Law Review.
The Review's Scholastica author page covers required files, citation form, and language. If you have reviewer comments from an earlier submission, send them with your manuscript and we will address each one. If you have questions about which service is right for your manuscript, contact us directly. We respond to every inquiry the same day during business hours.
Our legal editing services include law review editing, line editing, Bluebook citation checking for form, and journal formatting. Academic proofreading covers the final read. If English is your second language, see English language editing for researchers. We also prepare articles for the Albany Law Review and the Missouri Law Review.
