Publication of a Dissertation in Law


The Publication of Legal Scholarship



How Can You Positively Influence Your Legal Career Right Now?
The career prospects for lawyers who successfully complete their studies are very promising. We will show you how this is possible through a legal publication with a publisher.

During your studies, you will work intensively on your thesis for a long time.



Cuvillier Verlag gives you the opportunity to publish them – without formal hurdles and an unbureaucratic process.

This also applies to seminar papers written before graduation and to papers written by non-qualified lawyers – a letter of recommendation is therefore not required.

You can also publish your legal essays with a future – instead of a brief appearance in a specialist journal.

Your PhD in Law

Are you in the process of writing your legal dissertation?


A PhD in Law is something special and includes the awarding of an academic title. Doctoral regulations require mandatory publication of the dissertation so that scientific findings become accessible to the public through dissemination and reproduction.

Moreover, a doctoral degree in law is not only a sought-after path to increase your chances of landing your dream job as a judge or a partner in a major law firm, but it also typically boosts your starting salary.

For the optimal publication of your dissertation, we offer you:

  • Templates for formatting
  • Formatting, typesetting, and layout
  • Proofreading and editing
  • Custom cover design
  • Professional consultation
  • Personalized author support
  • Maximum citation potential & visibility
  • Publication with quality guarantee
  • Comprehensive marketing and worldwide distribution
  • Assistance with funding applications, e.g., VG Wort
  • A smooth publication process within 3–8 days

Be sure to check out our current offers and promotions, from which you can financially benefit.

Through our quarterly publication model, we give you the option to choose your preferred publication format. This includes print publication, eBook, Open Access, and the Cuvillier eCollection. Our experts will be happy to advise you on the best option for you.


With over 36 years of publishing expertise and more than 10,000 titles published, our publishing portfolio covers not only legal sciences but almost all academic fields.


We confer the highest recognition on your legal doctoral dissertation—and on you.




Costs of a Law Doctoral Dissertation


You are responsible for covering your living expenses during your doctoral studies. Many doctoral candidates often have questions about financing and funding opportunities. Doctoral financing can be secured through part-time doctoral studies, doctoral scholarships, participation in VG Wort, and other models.

Additionally, we have established the Cuvillier Science Fund, through which you can receive a grant of 250 euros toward the publication of your dissertation. We also recommend looking into doctoral awards and honors from the German Academic Scholarship Foundation (Studienstiftung des deutschen Volkes). Furthermore, the German Research Foundation (DFG) offers extensive funding options for doctoral candidates.


We offer you:

  • The option of electronic publication for €159
  • An Open Access flat fee of €790
