Submissions – Trademark Law Review

The Small Business Law Review™ gives practicing lawyers, law firms, legal scholars, and institutions concerned with small business law matters an efficient and effective means to:

Enhance their or their employee’s resumes by publishing traditional full-length legal articles, comments, case law notes, or book reviews with an ISSN registered periodical, while still retaining the copyright to their work.
Extend the reach of their content through our comprehensive content distribution platform, including syndication to other key websites through RSS feeds and inclusion in newsletters.
Provide information to the public regarding themselves though the use of author biographies, website and social media links, and customized law firm or institution banners.
Increase the number of back links to their website.
Have their articles, comments, case notes, or book reviews subject to open peer review commentary, if specifically elected by the contributor, by publishing an article and allowing non-anonymous commentary from peers which is co-published with the contributor’s response.
