First published in 1991, Law & Sexuality is the first and only student-edited law review in the country devoted solely to covering legal issues of interest to the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender community on a wide variety of subjects, including constitutional, employment, family, health, insurance, and military law. The Journal addresses all of these issues and more with theoretical and practical articles by academicians, practitioners, and students. This journal is published annually and has broad national and international circulation.
Law & Sexuality is the official legal publication of the National Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender (LGBT) Bar Association. The Journal publishes the winning article of the annual National LGBT Bar Association Michael Greenberg Student Writing Competition. This exciting competition is dedicated to encouraging and recognizing outstanding law student scholarship on the legal issues affecting LGBT persons.
Membership is open to upperclass law students. Members are chosen through summer and fall writing competitions. The responsibilities of the staff members include editing articles and student work and writing comments and recent developments material on any subjects related to lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender legal issues.
