Law Schools Editing and Proofreading Services
A law school produces an unusual range of writing: accreditation submissions read by regulators, journals read by academics, course materials read by anxious students, and admissions communications read by applicants deciding where to spend three years and a great deal of money. Each audience needs something different, and consistency across them is what makes an institution look well run.
We edit accreditation and self-study submissions, academic program proposals, course syllabi and casebooks, clinical and experiential learning materials, law review and journal articles, faculty scholarship and research papers, admissions and recruitment materials, academic policies and student handbooks, and grant and funding applications. Our editors apply your citation style consistently — legal citation is unforgiving and student editors are inheriting it — and check that policies in the handbook match the ones in the calendar.
Student-facing documents deserve more care than they usually get. Academic misconduct policies, accommodation procedures, and appeal routes are read by people under stress, and a procedure written in institutional prose produces avoidable complaints and appeals.
We work confidentially with unpublished scholarship and pre-submission accreditation material, and we can supply a house style sheet so a journal's incoming editorial board starts consistent rather than correcting course mid-volume.
