Property Articles Solicited for Probate & Property

The following is reproduced from an e-mail message from Prof. Alice M. Noble-Allgire.  I thought you may be interested because many Wills, Trusts, and Estates professors also teach other property-related courses.

Dear Colleagues:

            As some of you know, I am an associate articles editor for Probate & Property magazine, which is published by the ABA’s Section on Real Property, Probate and Trust Law.  As such, I would like to encourage those of you who have just finished writing a law review article (or have recently published one) to think about whether you could rework the piece into a magazine-length article targeted to real estate practitioners.

            We have one or two openings for our Jan/Feb 2007 issue, but would need the manuscripts within the next week or two. Submissions after that time frame would be considered for March/April and beyond.  Submissions can be emailed to me or to Real Property editor Michael Glazerman (mglazerman@burnslev.com).

            Probate & Property reaches about 30,000 section lawyers nationwide. It’s a great way to get a second, broader distribution for your work product and to gain direct access to the people who can put your ideas into practice.  We are primarily interested in practical pieces that would appeal to either real estate practitioners or estate planning/probate attorneys.  Articles should be in the range or 10 to 14 pages (double-spaced, WordPerfect or Word) in length, with minimal to moderate citations. For more information, see the “Author Guidelines” on the RPPT webpage at http://www.abanet.org/rppt/publications/magazine/home.html.

            Best regards,

            Alice
