Manuscript Editing for Creighton Law Review Journal Articles
Founded in 1967, with its first volume in spring 1968, the Creighton Law Review is a student-run law review. It publishes legal research oriented toward practitioners, with particular emphasis on issues affecting Nebraska and the Eighth Circuit. It also serves as a forum for scholarly debate that includes current law students. Students at the Creighton University School of Law publish three issues a year.
The Review considers every article submitted. Manuscripts go in as Microsoft Word documents, with footnotes supporting the text. Citations follow The Bluebook. The journal determines the final format of accepted articles while trying to preserve the author's work. Our law review editing moves any endnotes into footnotes and checks each citation for Bluebook form. Submissions go by email, the preferred route, or through Scholastica.
Our Promise
We will ensure that the final draft you receive is completely ready to submit to Creighton 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 Creighton 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 Creighton Law Review.
The Review's submission guidelines cover format, footnotes, and how to submit. 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 Drake Law Review and The University of Memphis Law Review.
