A recent AM Law Daily story, “Tallying Up the TARP-Related Legal Fees Racked Up By AM Law Firms,” reports that the U.S. Department of Treasury’s Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) may have expired, but some of the initiatives that grew out of that massive federal effort to bail out ailing banks and cope with other financial crisis fallout live on.

Several AM Law 100 firms have amassed significant legal tabs over the past four years.  Treasury has a breakdown on those firms and the “obligated value” of their TARP contracts, which extend for various time periods between 2008 and 2015, through the procurement section of its FinancialStability.gov website.
