What is considered Legal Malpractice?

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.
