Topics that tend to surface in Delaware case reviews

  • 01

    Injury court differs from the corporate court

    Delaware is famous for its Court of Chancery, yet car-wreck and other injury claims are heard in Superior Court. Different building, different procedures. A Route 1 or I-95 collision still falls under injury practice rather than a corporate docket.

  • 02

    A compact state with busy travel routes

    Route 1, I-95, and summertime beach traffic account for a substantial portion of crash reviews. Someone hurt while visiting Rehoboth or Dewey still has to consider Delaware filing rules, not just the state they drove in from.

  • 03

    Premises and workplace claims in New Castle County

    Stores, industrial facilities, and I-95 interchanges around Wilmington produce premises and workplace reviews. A participating attorney can determine whether the matter is a civil injury claim, a workers compensation claim, or both.
