Common mistakes to avoid
- Using a form from the wrong court: the Delaware Courts forms list keeps separate sets for the Court of Chancery, Court Of Common Pleas, Family Court, Justice Of The Peace Court, Superior Court and Supreme Court.
- Assuming one form covers every situation, when the Court Of Common Pleas alone has 155 forms on the Delaware Courts list, grouped under subjects such as General Civil Lawsuits.
- Working from a copy of unknown origin instead of the PDF the Delaware Courts publish at courts.delaware.gov.
- Filling in legal terms without checking their meaning in the Legal Glossaries on the Information for the Public web page.
