Legal Blogs: Inspiration for Finding Law Review Topics

The annual hunt for law review topics is another seasonal activity revealed by ZiefBrief's current usage statistics.

Immersing yourself for a time in the legal news is a great way to get at least a kernel of a topic. The following collections of law blogs let you skim a vast number of posts in a short time, so that you can get a sense of what's new, hot, and โ€” most important of all โ€” interesting to you.

For more ways to get a foothold on your law review topic, see our previous post, Summer Reading - Finding Paper & Law Review Topics.

Once you have that kernel, you can flesh it out with the techniques outlined in chapter two ("Inspiration: Choosing a Subject and Developing a Thesis") of Elizabeth Fajans & Mary R. Falk, Scholarly Writing for Law Students (3d ed. 2005).
