Aggressive Malpractice Defense
Over the years, our lawyers have developed skills and qualifications that enable us to aggressively defend our professional negligence clients. If a case requires an appeal, we handle the appeal ourselves.
We work to ensure that our professional liability clients have the same right to a fair trial that any other defendant has. Some malpractice cases are frivolous lawsuits brought by people who are unhappy with the results of the work of a professional that they hired, or who didn’t understand the risks involved in that work. Other times our clients did, in fact, commit malpractice. In such cases, we negotiate for the best resolution, or make sure our client is treated fairly in court.
Effective, Feasible Solutions
We keep the business aspect of our defense clients in mind, focusing on bringing each professional malpractice case to an economical resolution. For example, it might not be economically feasible to defend a $5000 case when the matter could be disposed of for $500. After making our clients aware of their options, we respect their wishes and negotiate or try a case accordingly.
We Represent You, Not Your Insurer
Professional liability cases are usually brought to our attention by the insurance carriers of the professionals whom we defend. However, our primary obligation is to the individual we represent. We handle professional malpractice lawsuits on case by case basis. Each case is unique. We devote the necessary time and thought into a thorough analysis of each case.
The varied professional backgrounds of our attorneys serve our clients well. Among our attorneys on staff are an accountant, a registered nurse, a former engineer, and attorneys with securities litigation and personal injury law experience. Thanks to our background, our experience, our dedication, and our analytical skills, we are confident that we can effectively defend any professional liability case. Contact us for more information as it relates to your particular professional malpractice issue.
