If you have suffered financial loss due to the negligence of your attorney, you may have a claim for legal malpractice. Proving legal malpractice can be complex and many firms shy away from this type of work.
Legal malpractice occurs when an attorney's conduct falls below the standard of care to be expected of a lawyer, causing damage to the client. Examples of Legal Malpractice include:
- When a lawyer fails to file a claim within the applicable statute of limitation.
- When a lawyer fails to meet a deadline that causes a client's case to be dismissed.
- When a lawyer makes a serious mistake when writing a contract or a will that results in a loss to the client.
- It is not legal malpractice just because a client loses a case. There must be evidence that the lawyer handled a matter so poorly as to fall below the standard expected of a lawyer.
