Welcome to Stanford Law School's COVID-19 Memo Database, developed and maintained by the Rock Center for Corporate Governance at Stanford University and Cornerstone Research.

Because of the decline in the number of COVID-related memoranda generated by law firms, this site will cease updating the underlying database as of May 24, 2022. The site will remain available as a research resource and public service.

We would like to thank the legal community and all our loyal supporters for their assistance in making this resource available to all who are interested.

The COVID-19 crisis has generated a complex web of legal, business, and operational challenges that affect the entire economy. Law firms, auditors, and business advisors have responded with thousands of memoranda addressing a broad range of topics spanning areas as diverse as tax, antitrust, employment, and contract law.

Resources

The site provides two resources:

We've built this site quickly and efficiently so that it might be of most practical use to the legal and audit communities, as well as to judges, legislators, regulators, scholars, and journalists. We know that we can improve this site in many ways, and we invite any and all suggestions for how we might be of greater service in this difficult time. Please forward suggestions and comments to covidmemo@law.stanford.edu.

The database includes any law firm listed among Amlaw's 2020 top 20 in total firm revenue or in profits per partner, each of the "Big Four" audit firms, and any affiliate of the Rock Center, that maintains a separate webpage dedicated to the coverage of legal matters generated by the current COVID-19 crisis. The database tracks only memoranda indexed within those COVID-19 designated webpages.
