Joe Jachetti earned his law degree from Widener University in 1997 and is admitted to practice in Delaware. He trained in law school and went on to build a practice that centers on courtroom work. Colleagues describe him as steady under pressure and attentive to the practical demands of trial preparation.
He is the managing partner at Schuster Jachetti LLP. In that role he oversees case strategy, client intake and the daily operations of a litigation practice.

Those affiliations keep him connected to peers and current in procedural developments and trial tactics. He participates in association activities and uses those forums to stay sharp on evolving courtroom rules.
His courtroom approach is pragmatic. He prepares cases methodically and expects thorough factual development before taking a matter to trial. That preparation includes witness work, document review and focused motion practice. When cases settle, he aims for resolutions that reflect the courtroom value of the claims.
