Rave Reviews

    "I generally give ExpressO submissions a bit more weight because it is highly convenient to have an electronic copy of the submission when I review it (versus just a paper copy for regular mail submissions); I am pleased to receive submissions in any form, but electronic submissions are much more efficient for record keeping purposes and for quick forwarding to lower level editors. Overall, I personally prefer ExpressO submissions."
— Mike Cetra, Volume 42 Executive Editor, Duquesne Law Review
    "We especially benefit from the uniformity of ExpressO submissions, e.g. consistently receiving the author's CV, instead of having to contact the author to request it."
— Carlos S. Montoya, Editor-in-Chief, Journal of Constitutional Law, University of Pennsylvania
    "I do appreciate that ExpressO automatically includes an article abstract and that most authors attach their CV with the ExpressO submission because I sometimes do not receive those things with other email submissions."
— Elizabeth Cox, Editor-in-Chief, SMU Law Review
    "The ExpressO service has been a great addition to the Oregon Law Review. We have received outstanding articles from a diverse range of authors through ExpressO. Oregon Law Review is proud to have accepted articles for publication submitted via ExpressO. Keep up the great work!!!"
— Meb Anderson, Articles Editor, Oregon Law Review
    "This has been a pretty neat thing. We have found ExpressO one of the easiest websites to deal with. There have not been any technical problems. All manuscripts, whether they get submitted by mail, email, or ExpressO are treated the same. We received four submissions via ExpressO in its first three weeks of operation, and have already given two of them offers."
— Verna L. Pierce, Editorial Assistant, Oklahoma City University Law Review
    "ExpressO has worked very well for us. Receiving electronic submissions increases the efficiency of our review process. We have yet to experience difficulty in opening attachments from the ExpressO emails. We wish you continued success with ExpressO!"
— Mohammed Diwan, Articles Editor, Duke Journal of Comparative & International Law
    "We really appreciate the ExpressO service and have accepted two articles for publication that were submitted through the service."
— D. Robert Holcomb, Acquisitions Editor, Cornell Journal of Law and Public Policy
    "The differences between papers which are e-mailed to us through your service and papers which are e-mailed to us directly from the authors are relatively indistinguishable. I like the fact that your service has seemingly increased electronic submissions over paper submissions, as we greatly prefer electronic submissions."
— John M. Challis, Managing Editor, Saint Louis University Public Law Review
    "We have found ExpressO to be very helpful, since it has yielded many high-quality articles."
— Karen F. Srebro, Lead Articles Editor, Syracuse Law Review
    "The NYU Environmental Law Journal asks that all submissions be sent to it electronically, both for ease of use and to conserve paper resources. A service that aids authors in this process is, consequently, a big help to ELJ."
— Nathan Alley, Co-Editor-in-Chief, NYU Environmental Law Journal
    "We've seen no real difference between submissions delivered through ExpressO and other electronic submissions. We like saving trees!"
— Ben Snowden, Developments Editor, NYU Environmental Law Journal
    "As far as our experience with ExpressO, its been a great one. Its made our process extremely efficient, we don't have a paid support staff."
— Kirpal Singh, Editor in Chief, Denver Journal of International Law and Policy
    "ExpressO has been great. It is the future of law review submissions. I'd venture to say that all article submissions will be transmitted electronically in the next five to ten years. Your group is really at the forefront of a great service!"
— Michael J. Cetra, Executive Editor, Volume 42, Duquesne Law Review
    "The service seems to be working beautifully. We have received several articles, and have been pleased with the quality of all of them."
— August McCarthy, Article Selection Editor, GMUSL Civil Rights Law Journal
    "I have been very happy with ExpressO. It is a useful tool for submissions."
— Paula M. Semrow, Articles Editor, Hamline Law Review
    "The articles have been of slightly higher quality than what we get through normal submission means. I have made 2 offers to publish of the 14 articles I have received so far through ExpressO. That is a much higher percentage than I normally offer to publish. Thanks for the great work. Keep the articles coming!"
— Sharon Russo, Articles and Symposia Editor, UMKC Law Review
    "The service has been working wonderfully. Keep up the good work."
— Alex Bahn, Senior Articles Editor, Tulane Journal of Technology and Intellectual Property
    "The process was an exceptionally easy and efficient way to submit my article to a number of law reviews. I was also the editor-in-chief last year of the Georgetown International Environmental Law Review and found that it was an excellent way to receive submissions."
— Christopher S. Van Wyk, Former Editor-in-Chief, Georgetown International Environmental Law Review
    "I am extremely happy with ExpressO's service. I enjoy receiving articles directly in our in box with a cover sheet giving a detailed abstract of the article."
— Alicia A. Albritton, Chief Articles Editor, Pierce Law Review
    "We really enjoy using the ExpressO service. It is easy to use and provides us with a wider variety of submissions than we would get if people had to mail out their article to each individual journal."
— Kristen Stuckey, Chief Articles Editor, American Journal of Criminal Law
    "Thanks so much for the articles. We've been the fortunate recipient of many."
— Linda Flaharty, Office Manager, Delaware Journal of Corporate Law
    "I am the Kentucky Law Journal's staff assistant and sort through all emails from potential authors, including those from ExpressO. Your service has worked great."
— Pam Turner, Staff, Kentucky Law Journal

   "I just wanted to give kudos to your service. I recently submitted my first article through your service and, within one day, had an offer for publication that I accepted. This is a great tool and resource! Thanks."
— Chad D. Emerson, Assistant Professor, Thomas Goode Jones School of Law, Faulkner University
    "I was delighted with the service I received from ExpressO. I got offers the very next day and ultimately accepted one. I'm just about to check out the new feature for informing the other journals that my article is no longer in play."
— Eric Easton, Professor, University of Baltimore
    "What a brilliant idea — kudos and thanks to all responsible for it!"
— Nadine Strossen, President, American Civil Liberties Union, and Professor of Law, New York Law School
    "The ExpressO concept is irresistible. Given modern technology, it makes no sense for law professors or their assistants to print, cover, and mail dozens of submissions. The process should be centralized in a system specialized to the task, a system such as ExpressO."
— Barry E. Adler, Associate Dean for Information Systems & Technology, NYU School of Law
    "ExpressO is a great innovation and an immense savings for scholars and law schools from outside the U.S."
— Ariel Porat, Professor and Dean, Tel Aviv Law School
    "I sent out by paper 1/2 of my submissions and by your service the other 1/2. I ended going with a journal that I had submitted the paper through your service. So, I guess that counts for it being successful."
— Ellen S. Podgor, Visiting Professor of Law, The George Washington University Law School
    "I found ExpressO to be a fabulous service - it was quick, easy to use and a huge savings in time. A great idea and now seems long overdue. The next day, I mailed hard copies to all the law reviews to which I wanted to submit that were not signed up for your service, and found the day to be exhausting and annoying!"
— Laura Hines, Associate Professor, University of Kansas School of Law
    "I've been delighted with ExpressO. I was able to submit an article in less than a half-hour. Previously it would have taken me an endless [amount of] time to see whether the secretaries got things right or not."
— James Steven Rogers, Professor, Boston College
    "I used ExpressO to submit an article and received an offer of publication within 12 hours or less. I submitted another article 2 to 3 weeks ago and received an offer of publication within 1 week. So, I must say that I am impressed by your program. The latter two occasions are the only times that I have used ExpressO, and I am enjoying a 100% success rate in obtaining offers of publications. It would appear that Law Schools tend to focus more attention on submissions via ExpressO, as opposed to the customary submission formats of "snail" mail, or even e-mail."
— M. Ulric Killion, Lecturer, Guangdong University of Foreign Studies and Trade, China
    "I have several acknowledgments and one offer already."
— Vic Fleischer, Professor, University of California, Los Angeles (a few days after submitting via ExpressO)
    "I've received email acknowledgments from three of the fifteen journals I submitted the paper to."
— Aaron Schwabach, Professor, Thomas Jefferson School of Law (24 hours after submitting via ExpressO)
    "I thought it worked very well. I especially like the feature that has email links to the journals. It made the task of requesting expedited review much easier than it used to be."
— Ronald J. Mann, William Stamps Farish Professor in Law, University of Texas Law School
    "The process seemed to work smoothly. I have already received various acknowledgments of receipt."
— Brian Cheffins, Professor, Cambridge University (a few days after submitting via ExpressO)
    "I was pleased with the experience. I even had one of the best results I have ever had from an unsolicited submission. My article was accepted by the Michigan Law Review! One of the things I think was valuable was that you insisted on a c.v. One of the articles editors told me that this worked to my advantage because they [i.e.. the articles editors] could see I had a good track record. I think if I send it on my own, though, it might seem too pushy."
— Welsh White, Professor, University of Pittsburgh School of Law
