Professional Negligence Claims Against Lawyers

If you have suffered a significant loss as a result of the negligence of a Lawyer including a Licensed Conveyancer, Legal Executive or Solicitor you will not only have suffered a loss but will rightly feel badly let down. It may seem a daunting prospect to seek any redress or compensation as claims against Lawyers are known to be complex and difficult and the Lawyer is almost bound to have Insurers and an experienced legal team ready to fight the case. We specialise in professional negligence claims against lawyers.

If the Lawyer has been negligent and caused you a significant loss you should be able to recover the compensation you deserve, through a professional negligence claim against the Lawyer.

We have a substantial amount of experience in assessing cases involving Lawyers’ negligence and have successfully pursued many cases involving Lawyers’ negligence. The nature of a professional negligence case against a Solicitor or Barrister is very similar to a case against another legal professional such as a Licensed Conveyancer or Legal Executive because the standard of care expected of the professional is that of a similar reasonably competent legal practitioner.

Our expertise and experience enables us to assess and pursue such cases in the same way. Whatever the profession and qualifications of the Lawyer concerned, if they were providing legal advice or assistance to you and caused you a significant loss a claim can be made against them in negligence to recover the losses caused by them. In these circumstances we are confident that we can help you obtain proper redress and compensation for your loss in a professional negligence claim against the Lawyer involved.
