Manuscript Editing for Wake Forest Law Review Journal Articles
First issued in May 1965 as the Wake Forest Intramural Law Review, the Wake Forest Law Review took its present name in 1970. It is a student-run, student-edited general law review at Wake Forest University School of Law, with five print issues a year and an annual symposium. Members are selected for excellence in legal research and writing. Wake Forest Law Review Online publishes shorter scholarly works and pieces on current events and the legal world.
The Review strongly prefers Articles of 15,000 to 30,000 words, footnotes included. It agrees with other journals that legal scholarship benefits from brevity. A cover letter describes the article and explains why the Wake Forest Law Review should publish it. Off the Grid Editing applies the journal's instructions when you send them, including its reference style. Our law review editing trims the draft into the preferred range and keeps each Part focused on the thesis. Submissions go through Scholastica or by email to the Senior Articles Editor.

Manuscript Editing and Proofreading for the Wake Forest 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 Wake Forest Law Review.
The Review's Scholastica author page covers length and the cover letter. 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 Syracuse Law Review and the UC Davis Law Review.
