Join us at Baylor Law School for the 2025 Lone Star Regional Legal Writing Conference!


Mark your calendars for April 10 & 11, 2025, as Baylor Law School proudly hosts the Lone Star Regional Legal Writing Conference in Waco. This annual gathering is a cornerstone event for legal writing professors and educators dedicated to advancing the craft of legal writing and advocacy in Texas.

Why Legal Writing Matters: Exceptional legal writing is the foundation of every successful legal career. Strong writing skills lead to sharper analysis, more persuasive advocacy, higher exam scores, and ultimately, more effective practitioners. We’re committed to creating a dynamic forum where educators can exchange ideas, refine their teaching methods, and inspire the next generation of legal writers.

What to Expect: This conference is more than just a meeting of minds—it’s a collaborative environment where innovation in legal writing education takes center stage. We’re building on the momentum from the last two events, where Texas Tech and the University of Houston revitalized Lone Star as the premier space for legal writing educators to grow and connect.

Ready to Inspire? We invite you to contribute to this ongoing conversation. If you teach legal writing, legal research, advocacy, or pedagogy, or if you have insights into these critical lawyering skills, share your expertise by submitting a presentation proposal. Whether you’re a full-time professor, a part-time instructor, or a member of the bench or bar, your voice is valuable in shaping the future of legal writing education. Proposals are due by February 15, 2025. Presenters will be notified of their acceptance by February 20, 2025

Why Attend? Register now to be part of a transformative experience that will leave you with fresh ideas, practical strategies, and a renewed passion for teaching legal writing. Connect with fellow educators, share your knowledge, and return to your classroom with the tools to make a lasting impact on your students.
