Overview

Connor Dalton was born and raised in Wilmington, Delaware and graduated from Wilmington Friends School. Connor attended undergraduate college at Marist College in Poughkeepsie, New York graduating in 2013 with a Bachelor of Arts in History.

Connor grew up in a family where the law was not simply a profession, but rather a vocation. Connor’s legal experience began early in grade school when he worked as a document runner and file clerk for Dalton & Associates. Over the years, Connor began working as a legal assistant to both the personal injury and medical malpractice teams.

After college, Connor moved to Burlington, Vermont where he worked as a clerk for an education law and insurance defense firm Lynn, Lynn, and Blackman (now Lynn, Lynn, Blackman & Manitsky P.C.). Before attending law school, Connor moved back to the Delaware area and resumed working for Dalton & Associates as a paralegal for the medical malpractice team.

Mr. Dalton attended and graduated from Villanova University Charles Widger School of Law (formally Villanova Law School) in 2019 having earned his Juris Doctor. During his time at law school, Mr. Dalton was one of only two students accepted to both the Villanova Law School Moot Court Team and the Villanova Law School Trial Team. On behalf of the Villanova Law School Moot Court Team Mr. Dalton argued in two national competitions: (1) The Howard Law School’s William B. Bryant-Luke C. Moore Invitational Moot Court Competition; and (2) the University of Las Vegas’s Frank A. Schreck Gaming Law Moot Court Competition. Mr. Dalton was a finalist in the William B. Bryant-Luke C. Moore Invitational Moot Court Competition which focused on multiple hot button civil rights issues. On behalf of the Villanova Law School Trial Team Mr. Dalton competed in the Annual Peter James Johnson National Civil Rights Competition.

In the summers of his law school career, Mr. Dalton interned with the Federal District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania under Honorable Gerald McHugh and with the Delaware Public Defenders office.

How do I choose a lawyer?

Consider the following:

  • Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
  • Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
  • Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
  • City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?

Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?

Here are a few to get you started:

  • How long have you been in practice?
  • How many cases like mine have you handled?
  • How often do you settle cases out of court?
  • What are your fees and costs?
  • What are the next steps?

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

  • Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
  • Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
  • Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
