HOWARD C. SCHWAB MEMORIAL
ESSAY CONTEST SECTION OF FAMILY LAW
Each year, the American Bar Association Section of Family Law conducts an essay contest to encourage law students to think about current issues in family law, and to encourage participation in the Section of Family Law. Students may write on any aspect of family law. The contest is open to second and third-year full-time J.D. students (and second through fourth-year part-time J.D. students) of all ABA-approved law schools, and to first year J.D. students where family law is taught as part of the first year curriculum.
Winning entries receive the following: Monetary prize, certificate of recognition, consideration of essay’s publication in Family Law Quarterly and the Section website, letter to law school dean regarding the achievement, and one year complimentary membership to the Section. To enter, one must submit an entry form by April 14, 2017. Essays are due April 28, 2017.
More information, including our downloadable entry form, can be found on our website. You may also contact ABA Section of Family Law Program Assistant, Danielle Pruger at danielle.pruger@americanbar.org or 312.988.5149 for additional information and assistance.
