LESS THAN TWO WEEKS LEFT! We’re nearing last call for the ABA Law Student Writing Competition! Please share this information with law students you know – your students, summer clerks/associates, family, friends. Students may have an article/paper they submitted during the semester that is relevant to the competition. Papers can be newsletter format (1,000-2,000 words) or law journal format. Please ensure your students are aware of this opportunity.

SUBMISSIONS FOR THE ABA FORUM ON CONSTRUCTION LAW STUDENT WRITING COMPETITION ARE DUE JUNE 30, 2024.  

This is a reminder of the Annual Law Student Writing Competition – please inform your students and law clerks/associates, share via social media, law school e-blasts, morning announcements, etc.!

  • $1,000 cash prize
  • Travel expenses to the Fall Meeting 2024 in an amazing location TBD (not to exceed $2,000)
