Professional Malpractice

Professional malpractice litigation involves claims for personal injuries, property damage, economic losses, or other injuries caused by the failure of a person or business to provide a professional service with the degree of reasonable care required by the law. For example, such claims can arise from the failure of a real estate agent to properly disclose adverse conditions associated with a piece of real property, the failure of an architect to properly design the structure of a construction project, the failure of a banker to properly ensure the security of a person's funds, or, indeed, the failure of a lawyer to properly protect his or her client's interests. Such claims generally are procedurally and substantively complex, expensive to prosecute, and hard-fought by the defense. As such, it is important to discuss your potential case with a lawyer who is experienced in this area of the law.
