We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.
Therefore, in using the site, you must agree to do your best to uphold these community guidelines.
Note that what you find here is written and moderated by anonymous people on the internet.
Therefore everything you read here is very likely unverified, rumour, speculation and/or downright false.
In continuing to read anything here, you must therefore agree not to take anything you read here as factual and that you will exercise due caution, diligence and common sense before acting on any information you may come across here.
You also agree to report any inaccurate or malicious comments with the buttons. Moderators take action within 24 hours, as required and appropriate under law.

Do you solemnly agree to all of the above?
will my credentials (private law school and 1st yr)work against me in my submission?How long does their team take to respond? I do not know whether my articles are worthy of publication in NLS blogs. However, what i do know is that i worked hard to research and write that article so i want to get it published at least somewhere but I have seen many comments on LI itself that their team is very un-responsive to submissions and got scared. What time should i wait for them to consider my blog and if they do not give a reply in suppose a month can i write a mail to them informing them that I am taking back my submission and submit it for consideration elsewhere or will it become useless if they do not respond. This is coming from someone who has gone through the pain of cold mailing for the first time while searching for internships and who got happy on even seeing a rejection mail from some of them.
Generally you can give it about 2 weeks and then send it somewhere else.
