Denver Law Review

Denver Law Review is the flagship journal of the University of Denver Sturm College of Law. The Law Review strives to publish articles of the highest quality in all areas of the law. The Law Review has proudly featured such distinguished authors as U.S. Supreme Court Justices Sandra Day O’Connor, William O. Douglas, and Byron White, noted constitutional law scholar Erwin Chemerinsky, and consumer advocate Ralph Nader. The Law Review actively seeks submissions from professors, practitioners, and judges from all practice areas. In its 99th year of publication, the Denver Law Review publishes four print issues annually. Two of the issues contain articles of general legal interest, while one of the issues focuses exclusively on the law of the 10th Circuit. The fourth issue contains articles drawn from the Law Review’s annual symposium. Additionally, the Denver Law Review publishes year-round on its Denver Law Review Forum. The Denver Law Review dates back to 1923, when its predecessor, the Denver Bar Association Record, began publication. In 1928, the name of the publication was changed to Dicta. The journal was published under that name until 1963, when it became the Denver Law Center Journal. It became the Denver Law Journal in 1966, and finally, the Denver University Law Review in 1985. The Denver Bar Association was the sole publisher until 1939, when the Colorado Bar Association joined the effort. The University of Denver College of Law joined the two bar associations as co-publisher in 1949, then took over as sole publisher in 1966.
