Potter Anderson & Corroon, LLP provides a full range of legal services to local, national, and international clients and trusted co-counsel. Whether it’s corporate law, corporate litigation, intellectual property, commercial litigation, bankruptcy, labor and employment, or real estate, we are proud to be one of largest and most highly regarded Delaware law firms. And as the state’s oldest law firm, we know the laws and the legal landscape in Delaware like no other.
More than a million businesses — corporations, limited liability companies, partnerships and trusts — have their legal home in Delaware, including more than 60 percent of all U.S. publicly traded companies and more than 60 percent of the Fortune 500. Organizations choose to incorporate in Delaware in large part because of the state’s courts and its business statutes.
Potter Anderson attorneys have a long history of commitment to their communities and have taken on leadership roles in countless legal, business, political, charitable and civic organizations. Our attorneys serve in numerous leadership positions in the American Bar Association and the Delaware State Bar Association.
Attorneys at Potter Anderson also participate as members of advisory boards for the Delaware state and federal judiciary, including committees involved in the nomination of new judges and the development of new legislation. Through these roles, Potter Anderson attorneys are helping to shape the rules and laws that affect the daily lives of those who do business in Delaware.
Pro bono legal service is another area in which Potter Anderson attorneys excel. Our attorneys include current and past board members of Delaware Volunteer Legal Services (DVLS), a statewide attorney volunteer organization providing legal services to those who are not able to afford attorneys. Our attorneys also have served as members of the boards of directors of numerous nonprofit agencies in Delaware.
These activities reflect the commitment of Potter Anderson's attorneys to active community involvement, not only to fulfill our obligations to the Bar, but also to obtain a better understanding and ability to satisfy the needs of our clients, since we are all affected and influenced by the communities in which we live and work.
