History

The National Law Review 
The first issue of The National Law Review Vol. I, No. 1, in January 1888

The National Law Review print edition was founded in January 1888 in Philadelphia by publishers and book sellers Kay & Brother, which initially specialized in publishing analysis on Pennsylvania legal developments authored by practicing attorneys . The print edition of the The National Law Review was a monthly scholarly law review, which included sections such as Current Legal News, a Book Review section, a Digest of Important Decisions which summarized recent judicial decisions in various states, and a section devoted to Current Legal Thought organized by legal topic.

The National Law Review premiered during an era when legal news and analysis resources authored by practitioners were considered an "almost indispensable auxiliary to the profession" and forty-two new law journals began in United States in the 1870s alone and even more in the 1880s. Academic law reviews continued going strong but few of the local law focused and attorney authored publications survived after West Publishing began to dominate the legal publishing market in the early 1900s by eliminating or consolidating numerous local legal reporters and many of the attorney authored law reviews. Articles in law reviews were often considered a persuasive authority in American courts, though this influence is generally thought to be waning in recent years.

21st century

In 2015, the online edition of The National Law Review was founded in Chicago by corporate attorney Jennifer Schaller and other in-house attorneys and internet professionals in order to provide an easily accessible and reliable resource of litigation and regulatory news articles written by vetted experts analyzing legal news and trends. The on-line edition has been described as more straightforward, practical and informative than a traditional law review, containing information of potential interest to both legal and business professionals, and it often serves as a reference source to other legal periodicals.

In addition to serving as a source on emerging American legal issues to mainstream media, The National Law Review provides several services of interest to practicing lawyers and law students.

Since 2018, the publication has honored approximately 75 noteworthy legal authors each year, which is less than 1% of the journal's contributing authors through the National Law Review's Go To Thought Leadership Awards. In 2021, NLR's editorial team launched the Legal News Reach podcast, which primarily focuses on law office management and legal marketing trends as well as other topical legal news.

In 2020, The National Law Review was certified by the Women's Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC) as a U.S. Small Business Administration as a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB), which is a business that is at least 51% owned and operated on a daily basis by one or more female U.S Citizens. In 2020 and 2021, the National Law Review exceeded 25 million pageviews and in January 2021, the news website specifically recognized law firm authors who contributed Coronavirus legal news with an exceptionally high number of readers and that were regularly cited by other news outlets as COVID-19 legal resource materials.
