Being partly at fault for an accident doesn’t necessarily mean you’re out of options.

In Delaware, you may still be able to recover damages even if you share some responsibility for what happened. Your share of fault can affect both your ability to recover and the amount you may receive.

That’s why fault isn’t always as simple as one person being entirely responsible.

What a great weekend in Bridgeville! 🍎🐷

We loved being part of this year’s Apple Scrapple Festival, one of our favorite Delaware fall traditions!

From the festivities to seeing so many familiar faces and meeting new ones, we enjoyed connecting with everyone who stopped by. Thanks for a wonderful weekend, Bridgeville!

We celebrated Hispanic Heritage Month with good food, great company, and a few new dance moves! 💃

Our offices enjoyed Hispanic cuisine prepared by our own Katherin Maldonado of Kathy's Kitchen and Ay, Que Rico!, the family catering business of our own Evelyn Ayala. We continued the celebration with a salsa lesson at Fred Astaire Dance Studios - Wilmington-Fairfax, bringing everyone together for an afternoon of dancing, learning, and plenty of laughs.

Thank you to everyone who helped make the celebration so memorable!

A day on the course in support of Beebe Healthcare! ⛳️

Our Morris James golfers enjoyed hitting the course for the Wealth Management Open and catching up with friends and colleagues along the way.

Even better, it was all in support of Beebe Medical Foundation and healthcare in southern Delaware.

Moving after a divorce or separation can become more complicated when children are involved.

If a move out of Delaware would affect an existing custody or visitation arrangement, there may be additional steps to consider before relocating. When parents disagree about a proposed move, the child’s best interests are an important part of the court’s consideration.

Knowing how a move could affect your custody arrangement before making plans can help you understand what comes next.

MJ goes pink! 🩷

More than 5,000 runners and walkers came together for the 15th annual Dewey Goes Pink, all in support of Delaware Breast Cancer Coalition.

Throughout the day, survivors celebrated their journeys, families honored loved ones, and thousands showed their support for a cause that has touched so many lives.

We loved being there, seeing so many familiar faces, and joining the Dewey community in supporting such a meaningful cause. 🩷

Yesterday, we welcomed Dr. Arianne Missimer back to Morris James for a firmwide conversation about energy, focus, resilience, and well-being. ❤️

Through practical strategies around movement, nutrition, stress, and nervous system regulation, Dr. Missimer gave our team tools we can put into practice both at work and outside of it.

Thank you to our Wellness Committee for bringing this conversation to the firm, and to Dr. Missimer for another engaging session!

When was the last time you reviewed your estate plan?

Major changes in your family, finances, or the people named in your plan can be good reasons to revisit it. Even if nothing significant has changed, reviewing your plan periodically can help ensure it still reflects your current wishes and circumstances.
