Our Firm Concentrates On Prosecuting Professional Malpractice
On a basic level, malpractice is a failure to provide services according to an agreement. However, because professionals are understood to be trusted advisors, their failures often involve a fundamental breach of trust and of the professional obligation they owe to a client. Attorney James devotes a significant portion of his practice to pursuing claims for the breach of professional relationships against an array of advisors, including:
- Lawyers
- Clergy members
- Accountants
- Mortgage brokers
- Bankers
What Is Professional Malpractice?
Grounds for a professional liability claim might include fraud, misrepresentation, nonperformance, economic abuse, loss of data, system or product failure, or, in the case of clergy malpractice, sexual abuse. As a professional malpractice firm, we have four decades of experience aggressively pursuing these claims and recovering compensation for our clients.
Aggressive Legal Malpractice Litigator
When a lawyer makes a serious mistake with your case, it is not only upsetting – it might also qualify as a claim for negligent representation. Sometimes errors can be rectified, but other times, an attorney’s blunder can be so egregious and cause such damage to your interests that it amounts to legal malpractice. Some examples of legal malpractice are:
- Conflict of interest
- Breach of fiduciary duty
- Missing crucial deadlines
- Misappropriation of client money
- Missing a statute of limitations
- Negligent prosecution
Attorney James is a risk-taker, having sued more than 100 lawyers for legal malpractice in North Carolina. One lawyer even moved to another part of the state to avoid him! If you have suffered from attorney negligence, you need a lawyer with the know-how and courage to help you recover the compensation you deserve from your prior counsel and also to try to resurrect your underlying case if possible – to do what your prior counsel failed to do.
