Exceptions and details
Delaware has no court formally named 'small claims'; small civil claims (debt, contract, replevin, property damage) are heard in the Justice of the Peace Court, whose limit is $25,000 (10 Del. C. § 9301). JP Court negligence jurisdiction excludes cases involving physical injury, so personal-injury suits go to the Court of Common Pleas or Superior Court. Interest may be added above $25,000, and the cap does not apply to certain claims in commercial-lease summary possession actions. JP Court also hears all landlord/tenant summary possession cases.
Delaware has no mandatory bar association (lawyers are regulated by the Delaware Supreme Court); the DSBA is the voluntary statewide bar. Its explanatory page is https://www.dsba.org/resources/public-resources/ ('The Online Lawyer Referral Service (OLRS) is strictly a referral service'). Participating lawyers choose whether to contact the requester.
