When you hire an attorney, you place enormous trust in their knowledge, judgment, and dedication to your case. Unfortunately, sometimes that trust is broken. If your lawyer’s mistakes, negligence, or misconduct have caused you significant harm, you may have a claim for legal malpractice.

 

We are not afraid to stand up to other lawyers to hold them accountable when they fail to meet professional standards. Our goal is to protect your rights, recover your losses, ensure accountability, and restore your faith in the legal system.

What is legal malpractice?

​

Legal malpractice occurs when a lawyer’s actions—or failure to act—falls below the accepted standard of care and causes damage to the client. Common examples include:

 

• Missing court deadlines or statutes of limitations

• Mishandling evidence or key documents

• Conflicts of interest that harm the client

• Inadequate preparation for hearings or trial

• Giving incorrect legal advice

• Failing to properly investigate or pursue a case

​​

Why are legal malpractice cases different?

​

Legal malpractice cases are complex because they require proving not only that your lawyer acted negligently, but also, that you would have won (or achieved a better outcome) if the case had been handled correctly.

​

When circumstances merit, we are courageous enough to pursue cases against other attorneys. We are experienced evaluating and litigating legal malpractice claims, and we have the resources to handle the challenging legal and factual issues involved.​​
