The Delaware trial court system consists of Superior Courts, Courts of Chancery, Courts of Common Pleas, Family Courts, and Justice of the Peace Courts.
 
Superior Courts have general jurisdiction over civil and criminal cases, but typically only handle cases that are beyond the jurisdiction of other courts. The Courts of Chancery handle complex commercial cases involving matters of equity and most probate cases. The Courts of Common Pleas, Family Courts and the Justice of the Peace Courts have limited jurisdiction over certain types of cases.
