Richmond Public Interest Law Review

The Richmond Public Interest Law Review (PILR) is a publication dedicated to issues of social welfare, public policy, and public interest law. Run by second and third-year students at the University of Richmond School of Law, PILR publishes three issues annually.

Our authors include legal practitioners, law professors, legislative advocates, public officials, law students, and other insightful individuals working to change the law—and the world—for the better.

In addition to our three annual issues, PILR maintains a blog comprising short-form writing by our student staff members. The blog is regularly updated throughout the academic year.
