Legal Malpractice Defense
We are often retained by law firms, their counsel, and insurers to evaluate damages claims arising from alleged legal malpractice. Due to our work in intellectual property matters and other complex business disputes, we are particularly well-positioned to assist in these cases. We have worked on matters involving allegations of legal malpractice arising from failures to prosecute patents, patent-related litigation, and complex business transactions.
These matters are often of the utmost sensitivity to our clients. We are thoughtful and discrete in our approach to these cases. This discretion leads our clients, and their insurers, to seek our guidance with their most sensitive and important matters.
