If you do not want to write your own full articles to begin with, we also offer the opportunity to update Westlaw's existing articles if you prefer.

-
Each article you write must be reviewed by someone senior to yourself at your Firm/Chambers/University; your work is then taken through a robust internal review process, so we ensure that it meets our standards and that you can be confident publishing on our website.

You will be invited to review and revise every six months or yearly depending on how quickly your area changes, but you can update your article as often as you like, to keep it in line with the latest case-law and legislative developments in your field.
