Publication Policy
Law Justified Magazine adopted a double-blinded peer reviewing process, which means both authors’ and reviewers’ identity are not disclosed to each other. Since its format is to publish short articles only, the peer-review process of submitted manuscripts is mostly done in a short time frame either by members of the editorial board, reviewer panel or external experts as decided by the publisher, to streamline publication on time to fulfil its objectives of solution oriented and meaningful discussion on current legal developments.
