Editorial Calendar

Article assignments are typically made from six to nine months in advance and deadlines for completed articles are usually three months in advance of publication. Authors interested in submitting articles pertaining to a scheduled topic should contact Mindy Drexel, legal publications editor at [email protected] for information on the specific needs for the issue. Due to space limitations we cannot always run every article, unless we have discussed the topic with an author first.

Please note: New Jersey Lawyer is always looking for law-related articles and creative material unrelated to the topic assigned to a specific issue. Departments such as Ethics and Professional Responsibility; Practice Perfect; Diversity, Equity and Inclusion; Tech Tips; View From the Bench; What I Wish I Knew and Writer’s Corner are always open to new authors.
