## Delaware legal context

Delaware is famous for its Court of Chancery, which focuses exclusively on corporate governance and fiduciary disputes. The state also maintains Superior Courts, Family Courts, Justice of the Peace Courts, and the Delaware Supreme Court.

Because more than two-thirds of Fortune 500 companies are incorporated here, attorneys must master shareholder litigation, mergers, and appraisal actions. The Delaware State Bar Association keeps practitioners current on rapidly evolving corporate case law.

### Is the consultation confidential?

Yes. Your intake details are encrypted and shared only with the matched Delaware attorneys. Communications you have directly with an attorney you choose to engage are subject to the attorney-client privacy rules of Delaware.
