Welcome to Field To Forum
For Law Students
Law students with real-world experience bring something rare to the table: a first hand understanding of how the law actually affects people, industries and institutions. Field to Forum exists to help you turn that experience into a professional advantage.
Whether you've worked in education, real estate, healthcare, logistics or any law influenced field, you already have insights most students don't, and most legal commentary misses. This platform gives you a way to sharpen those insights into publishable work that sets you apart.
Your contributions become part of our Industry Tracks, curated collections of field-specific legal briefs that help readers explore how the law operates in sectors like yours. These tracks organize the platform and give your writing a meaningful home where it can inform, educate and stand the test of time.
As a Contributor, you'll:
- Build a portfolio of law-informed writing that shows you understand legal issues in context.
- Stand out in interviews, clerkship applications, and internships with real, relevant work.
- Contribute to public and professional conversations, clearly, ethically and without giving legal advice.
- Strengthen your voice as a future attorney, advocate or policymaker.
- Join a community of thoughtful peers translating field experience into legal insight.
Who This Helps
Field to Forum is built for anyone who wants to understand how the law actually works, in business, in schools, in government, and beyond. Our contributors bring real-world experience to legal questions, offering grounded, accessible insights that traditional legal commentary often misses.
Whether you're a professional navigating regulation, a policymaker seeking perspective, an educator looking for teaching material, or a law student eager to learn from your peers, the content here is written to inform, clarify, and connect law to lived experience.
To make it easy to find what matters to you, we organize these insights into Industry Tracks, collections of briefs focused on fields like real estate, education, insurance, logistics, and more.
