I am a lifelong Delaware resident who decided to go into law to help people.  I enjoy the varied practice of law and the personal interaction with my clients.  It also does not hurt to win hard fought cases for my clients.. While I work in an office and the Court, my personal time is spent in the outdoors as much as practicle.  My favorite days are hikes or swimming with my Labradore, Sassy.

Wade earned a graduate certificate in Estate Planning from Temple University Beasley School of Law in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 2007.. During the early part of his legal career, Wade concentrated his practice in civil litigation.

Wade’s practice is known as the Delaware Elder Law Center. Wade is a member of WealthCounsel, ElderCounsel, and the National Association of Elder Law Attorneys, which are national organizations of trusts and estates attorneys and other legal, tax and business professionals who design sophisticated planning techniques for individuals and families.
