Schuster Jachetti LLP maintains a Delaware personal injury office in Georgetown, the seat of Sussex County. From this office, attorney Joseph M. Jachetti represents people who have been injured throughout Sussex and southern Kent County — on Route 113, Route 9, Route 404, Route 1, and the many local roads connecting Georgetown to Dover, Milford, Seaford, Millsboro, and the Delaware coast.
Georgetown is the location of the Sussex County Courthouse, which means matters that proceed to litigation in Sussex County are heard here. Having an office in Georgetown allows the firm to handle cases close to where they are filed and where its Sussex County clients live and work. Joe Jachetti has appeared in the Sussex County courts over the course of his more than 25-year career, and he understands the rhythms of practice in the southernmost of Delaware’s three counties.
Joe was born and raised in Delaware, attended Widener University School of Law, and has been a member of the Delaware Bar since 1998 (Delaware Bar #003744). He is also admitted in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and the U.S. District Court of Delaware.
If you were hurt in or around Georgetown, you can reach the office at (302) 877-9524 or the sitewide number at (302) 984-1000. Initial consultations are free, confidential, and carry no obligation.

Sussex County Communities We Serve
Georgetown
Georgetown is the geographic and governmental center of Sussex County. Route 113 runs through town, connecting Georgetown to Milford to the north and Selbyville to the south. The Sussex County Courthouse complex sits in the center of town off The Circle. Joseph M. Jachetti represents clients injured in Georgetown and the surrounding rural communities — on Route 113, Route 404, Route 9, and the local roads radiating out from town.
Dover
While Dover is in Kent County, it is reachable from the Georgetown office along Route 113. The firm represents Dover-area clients in personal injury matters arising from collisions on Route 1, Route 13, Route 8, and other Kent County corridors.
Milford
Milford straddles the Kent and Sussex county line along Route 113. The Milford area has grown significantly in recent years, and the firm regularly represents clients injured on Route 113 / DuPont Boulevard, Route 1 (just east of town), and Route 36, which connects Milford to the coast.
Seaford
Seaford lies on Route 13 in western Sussex County, near the Maryland border. Joseph M. Jachetti represents clients injured in Seaford, Bridgeville, Blades, and the surrounding Western Sussex communities. Common case locations include Route 13, Route 20, and the local roads connecting Seaford to Laurel.
Millsboro
Millsboro sits along Route 113 and Route 24, between Georgetown and Long Neck. As development around the Inland Bays has increased, so has traffic on local roads. The firm represents clients injured in Millsboro and the surrounding communities, including incidents on Route 113, Route 24, and Route 26.
Other Sussex County communities served from the Georgetown office include Laurel, Selbyville, Bridgeville, Greenwood, Frankford, Dagsboro, Ocean View, Bethany Beach, Fenwick Island, and Long Neck.
Common Collision Locations in Sussex County
Sussex County is large and largely rural, with traffic concentrated on a handful of corridors. Locations the firm regularly hears about include:
- Route 113 (DuPont Boulevard) — the spine of Sussex County, running north-south from Milford through Georgetown and down to Selbyville
- Route 1 / Coastal Highway — the eastern corridor connecting Lewes, Rehoboth, Dewey, Bethany, and Fenwick Island
- Route 404 — the east-west corridor used by beach traffic from Maryland and beyond
- Route 9 — connecting Georgetown to Lewes
- Route 24 — connecting Millsboro to Long Neck and the Inland Bays
- Route 26 — the corridor into Bethany Beach
Each location presents its own evidentiary considerations. The firm investigates each case on its specific facts — pulling police reports, reviewing photos, identifying witnesses, and securing any available surveillance footage before it disappears.
