At The Sharma Law Firm, our team of experienced personal injury attorneys proudly serves residents of Barkley, DE and the surrounding areas from our convenient North Wilmington office. While Barkley, Delaware, does not appear as an officially recognized municipality or census-designated place, many people in northern Delaware use the name informally to describe small rural communities and neighborhoods near Wilmington and the Pennsylvania border. Whether you call it Barkley, Barclay, or another local variation, our mission remains the same: to protect the rights of injured individuals and families in this part of the state.
If you or someone you love has been hurt because of another party’s negligence — in a car accident, workplace incident, slip and fall, or another preventable event — The Sharma Law Firm is here to fight for the justice and compensation you deserve.
Our North Wilmington location allows us to serve clients throughout northern New Castle County, including those living in or around the area sometimes referred to as Barkley or Barclay. Residents here enjoy a quieter pace compared to downtown Wilmington but still have quick access to major roadways such as I-95, Concord Pike (US-202), and Naamans Road, making commuting convenient. Unfortunately, these busy roads can also be the scene of serious traffic collisions, truck crashes, and pedestrian accidents.
As a personal injury firm, we know that even a single negligent act — a distracted driver, a poorly maintained property, or an unsafe workplace — can disrupt your life. That’s why our legal team provides compassionate support and aggressive representation every step of the way.
You might wonder where the name “Barkley” or “Barclay” comes from, especially since it’s not an official Delaware town. The Barclay surname traces back to Scotland, originally associated with the Clan Barclay, with historical records dating to Roger de Berchelai around 1086. Over time, the name spread and evolved, giving rise to the variant Barkley, which has English origins, likely tied to places such as Berkeley in Gloucestershire or Berkley in Somerset.
One of the most famous bearers of the Barclay name was Michael Andreas Barclay de Tolly, a descendant of Scottish immigrants who served as a Field Marshal in the Imperial Russian Army during Napoleon’s 1812 invasion of Russia. Barclay de Tolly became the Russian Minister of War and is remembered as a brilliant strategist; his portrait still hangs in the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg. While this fascinating history may not be directly connected to the Delaware community known informally as Barkley, it highlights the enduring legacy of the name.
