Law & Sexuality: A Review of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Legal Issues was founded in 1989 by a group of gay and non-gay students to provide a national forum for discourse on legal matters related to sexual orientation. It is the first and only student-edited law review in the United States to be devoted to issues of concern to the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community. This journal is published every year and has a broad, national circulation. The review publishes articles by scholars and lawyers on a wide variety of subjects, including constitutional law, corporate law, employment law, family law, health law, insurance, military law, and trusts and estates. The review also publishes traditional student writing.
Membership on the review is open to all upperclass law students with two years of study remaining at the law school. 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.
