Why Write for the IICJ?

"As an author: I cannot think of a better forum to showcase your work."

M. Fabiana Lacerca, Senior Vice President,
Chief Compliance Officer, Mylan Inc, USA

"I've written a couple of articles for the IICJ. The range and breath of coverage is very impressive. Specialists with hands on experience tend to submit articles displaying practical lessons learnt and this can be invaluable. The Journal is always looking for specialist areas to focus on and the response is always very encouraging. They often carry coverage on areas not normally picked up elsewhere and it has that "from the horse's mouth" approach."

Lee Callaghan, Head of Group Legal /
Group Competition Counsel, Aviva plc, UK

"Writing a longer article for the IICJ was a challenging and refreshing experience which gave me the opportunity to systematize some of my thoughts on the subject matter"

Stefano Catelani,
Corporate Counsel, Dupont, Switzerland

"I have found the staff at the IICJ to be responsive, helpful and extremely professional - something I have really appreciated as a contributor. The proofreading, printing, distribution and web formatting are done perfectly each time, leaving you free to concentrate on the writing."

Beatrice Roxburgh,
Senior Competition Counsel,
BT Group Legal, UK
