The Defense Association of New York (DANY), celebrating its 50th Anniversary, is proud to offer
a writing competition for enrolled law school students. Interested students are requested to draft
an original scholarly work of interest to those professionals whose focus is primarily for the
defense of litigated civil cases, and whose practice consists of representing insurance companies,
self-insured entities and corporate defendants, for publication in The Defendant. The Defendant is
an on-line publication published by DANY and distributed to the bench, bar and insurance
professionals. The article is not to exceed 2,500 words.
Articles will be accepted up until March 18, 2016, with the possibility that multiple scholarships
will be awarded. Any law student whose article is selected for publication in The Defendant will be
awarded a $500 scholarship and a one-year free membership in the DANY, including free admission to
all continuing legal education programs provided by DANY.
