Legal Ethics Forum is sponsoring a law student writing competition with prizes totaling $1,500. The competition is described at http://www.legalethicsforum.com/blog/2013/09/legal-ethics-blogging-competition-for-law-students.html. The competition is open to students enrolled at any law school in the world as of September 1, 2013. Submissions cannot be longer than 1,250 words and each submission must address a topic of interest related to legal ethics. Examples of eligible topics include (but are not limited to): 1) alternative law practice structures; how to comply with new ABA Model Rule 1.6(b)(c); and the identification of skills that competent lawyers must have today that were unnecessary twenty years ago. Each student can submit as many as three entries, though no student will be eligible to win more than one prize. Multiple submissions from the same author, however, may be eligible for publication on the blog. The winner of the competition will receive at least $500. The second place entry will receive at least $300, and the third place entry will receive at least $200. As many as five submissions will receive an honorable mention with a cash prize of at least $100. The total prize money available is approximately $1,500. All of the winning entries will be published on the blog. All submissions must be received by January 5, 2014 and should be sent to this email address lefcompetition@andrewperlman.com as attachments. Submissions should be in a commonly used word processing format, such as Word, that allows for automated word counts. Winners will be notified by February 28, 2014.
