Who we are

What we do

The Delaware Journal of Corporate Law is a student-edited publication established in 1975 at Widener University Delaware Law School as a medium to keep business-law practitioners abreast of critical issues within their areas of expertise.

What we publish

The Journal produces three issues per volume in Delaware, the heart of American corporate activity, and is in a unique position to maintain a corporate law focus. However, the scope of our published content remains broad.

We publish articles that fall within the scope of the American Bar Association’s Section of Business Law, including:

Professional Responsibility
Insurance Law
Law Firms
Criminal Laws
Employee Benefits
Alternative Dispute Resolution

Environmental Controls
Food, Drug and Cosmetic Law
Health Law
International Business Law 
Public Interest Issues
Telecommunications

Our readers benefit from exposure to myriad areas of developing law. In addition to Notes and Comments, we publish unpublished Delaware Court of Chancery decisions.

A tradition of excellence 

We are nationally and locally renowned for attracting legal experts. Our published content is routinely cited and relied upon by authors and judges. For example, the Delaware Supreme Court and Delaware Court of Chancery have cited to Journal articles in decisions. See, e.g., North River Ins. Co. v. Mine Safety Appliances Co., C.A. No. 8456-VCG, at *30 n.75 (Del. Nov. 8, 2014) (citing E. Micheletti & J. Parker, Multi-Jurisdictional Litigation: Who Caused This Problem, and Can It Be Fixed? 37 Del. J. Corp. L., 1 (2012)).
