Submission Criteria

The Delaware Journal of Corporate Law is the flagship law review of Widener University Delaware Law School. Founded in 1975, the Journal has continually provided the nation’s legal community with well-researched and analytical articles on issues of timely significance.


Because the Journal is situated in Delaware—the heart of American corporate activity—it is in a unique position to maintain a corporate law focus. However, its scope is extremely broad. The Journal considers submissions that fall within the scope of the American Bar Association’s Business Law Section. 


The Journal publishes three issues per annual volume. In addition to scholarly articles, the Journal publishes essays and opinions from the Delaware Court of Chancery that are not otherwise printed in a regional reporter. In 2022, the Journal began including student-authored case summaries as a preface to these opinions.


It ranks among the top specialized legal journals in the United States based on the number of citations from federal and state courts and student-edited journals in the category "Corporate Law and Business Law."
