Stratton, featured among "Delaware's Top Attorneys" in Delaware Today (2001 and 2006), form a powerful legal team that is focused on results.

Personal Injury and Wrongful Death Claims

We represent people who have suffered serious injuries and financial losses due to the negligent or reckless actions of another party. Our clients have been injured in a variety of situations, from car accidents and truck accidents to dog bites and accidents on poorly maintained properties (such as slip-and-fall or trip-and-fall injuries). Our firm also brings wrongful death claims on behalf of grieving families who have lost a loved one due to the negligent, reckless, or wrongful actions of another. Personal injury cases are accepted on a contingency-fee basis, which means you pay no attorney fee unless we recover money for you.

Employment Law

We represent employees bringing claims against employers for discrimination, harassment, failure to accommodate a disability, and other EEOC cases or employment law violations. If you have been the victim of discrimination because of your age, race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, gender, pregnancy or disability you may have a claim for compensation or other remedies. We also represent employees in whistle blower and false claims act cases.  Contact our office to learn more.

Workers' Compensation Claims

The injury lawyers of Knepper & Stratton represent injured workers, including state and municipal employees, who need help obtaining just compensation from their employer's workers' compensation insurance company. If you have been injured on the job, do you know the amount of compensation you are entitled to receive? Are you receiving everything you deserve? Contact our office if you are experiencing problems with your workers' compensation claim. We represent clients at Industrial Accident Board (IAB) hearings.

Delaware Criminal Defense

Our criminal defense attorneys aggressively defend the rights of people who are facing misdemeanor charges in any Delaware state court, including traffic court. Our clients include many out-of-state visitors, including college students, parents, and tourists who are stopped by the Delaware state or local police and charged with traffic offenses or drunk driving.
