Legal Malpractice
Legal malpractice claims can arise from virtually any type of case, including personal injury, business transactions and criminal defense.
Common types of legal malpractice include:
- Failure to properly advise clients of their options
- Failure to disclose important information to clients
- Breach of fiduciary duty
- Failure to investigate
- Failure to conduct legal research
- Missing the statute of limitations
We will thoroughly research the details of your case to determine your potential liability. In a personal injury case, for instance, a client may claim the loss of millions of dollars due to legal malpractice. In a criminal defense case, he or she may claim the loss of years of freedom.
We are committed to helping attorneys protect their reputations as well as defending them from legal malpractice claims.
