The Georgia State University Law Review invites legal scholars, advocates, attorneys, judges, data scientists, and other practitioners to submit pieces for its upcoming symposium issue on legal analytics. The symposium will focus on several current challenges in legal analytics, including predictive technology and market forecasting. Charlotte S. Alexander, Director of the Legal Analytics Lab at Georgia State University, along with Anne M. Tucker, Associate Professor of Law at Georgia State University, both leading scholars in the field of legal analytics, are co-chairing the symposium program which will feature Shawnna Hoffman, the IBM Global Co-leader for the Cognitive Legal Practice as the keynote speaker. Authors are invited to submit pieces on related topics.
Our format is flexible to encourage academics, advocates, attorneys, judges, data scientists, and other practitioners to participate. We welcome papers, essays, and symposium-length articles on legal analytics and related topics. Selected pieces will be published in Volume 35, Issue 4, in summer 2019. Final Articles are due from authors by December 14, 2018.
