Duke Law School invites applications for a visiting instructor to teach in its JD writing program beginning July 1, 2021 [or as soon before August 1, 2021 as the successful candidate is available to start]. The candidate hired will teach one section of Duke’s required, first-year course, Legal Analysis, Research, and Writing.  

LARW is a graded, two-semester, four-credit course.  We expect the candidate’s section of LARW to have 25-30 students, and Duke University expects that classes in the fall will be in person.

Candidates must have a JD degree, superior academic records and at least four years of experience in practice (which may include clerking). Teaching experience is also preferred and candidates with significant transactional practice experience are especially encouraged to apply.

Please note: we will read applications on a rolling basis and hope to fill this position as soon as possible.  So, we encourage you to apply as soon as possible.

Address applications to Jeremy Mullem, Director of Legal Writing.

Our collective success depends on the robust exchange of ideas-an exchange that is best when the rich diversity of our perspectives, backgrounds, and experiences flourishes. To achieve this exchange, it is essential that all members of the community feel secure and welcome, that the contributions of all individuals are respected, and that all voices are heard. All members of our community have a responsibility to uphold these values.
