The University College Dublin Law Review, established in 2001, is Ireland’s leading student-run law journal. The Review provides a prestigious forum of legal scholarship with contributions from undergraduate and postgraduate students, along with practitioners, from within Ireland, and abroad. The Review is managed by the Editor-in-Chief, Emily Cahill, and members of the Editorial Board, which consists of undergraduate and postgraduate law students. Our Academic Advisers, Dr. Kevin Costello and Dr. Sarah Fulham McQuillan, provide additional guidance. This is a unique platform for promoting academic debate and commentary, and also offers the opportunity for Board members to refine their research and editing skills. The Editorial Board of the Review would like to express its sincere thanks to our primary sponsors, Arthur Cox Solicitors, who have provided continuous support since the inception of the Review in 2001. We would also like to acknowledge A&L Goodbody Solicitors, the sponsor of our Most Outstanding Article Prize, which awards €500 to the winning author. Previous editions of the UCD Law Review are available from the Editor. Alternatively, the Review can be accessed via HeinOnline. General queries should be directed to the Editor-in-Chief, who can be contacted at UCDLawReviewBoard@ucd.ie
