Founded in 1914 and operating continuously since 1935, the Fordham Law Review is a scholarly journal committed to serving the legal profession and the public by discussing current legal issues.

The Law Review is managed by a board of twenty student editors and comprises an additional eighty student staff, members, and associate editors.

The Fordham Law Review publishes works in various formats, including Articles, Essays, Symposia, and Student Notes.
