The South Texas Law Review is a student-edited journal of legal scholarship published at South Texas College of Law, a private, independent law school in downtown Houston, Texas. The Law Review began publication in 1954.

The Law Review publishes four issues annually, typically in Fall, Winter, Spring and Summer. South Texas Law Review publishes scholarly works by law professors, judges and practicing attorneys as well as student-written comments and case notes. Notably, South Texas Law Review has published articles written by five United States Supreme Court Justices: Justice Arthur Goldberg, Justice William J. Brennan, Jr., Justice William H. Rehnquist, Justice John Paul Stevens, and Justice Clarence Thomas.
