The Harvard Business Law Review (HBLR) is a bi-annual legal journal published at Harvard Law School.[1] It covers subjects including: corporate governance, securities law, capital markets, financial regulation and institutions, financial distress and bankruptcy, and related subjects.[2][3][4]

While being run and published by students, the Harvard Business Law Review has an advisory board consisting of a number of tenured Professors at Harvard Law School, including Lucian Bebchuk, Mark J. Roe, Guhan Subramanian, and also practitioners, including Paul N. Watterson Jr., Elizabeth M. Schubert, and Warren Motley.[5]

The Review expanded between 2024 and 2025 under presidents Joseph Ravenna IV and Savannah G. Huitema, opening membership to Harvard Business School students.[6] With the American Law Institute, it hosted a symposium on the Restatement of the Law, Consumer Contracts, publishing a corresponding special issue.[7][8] The journal also hosted the 63rd Williston Competition, which had been dormant for a decade.[9]
