Professional Liability

A professional’s license, reputation, and livelihood are built over an entire career and can be jeopardized by a single claim.

We defend professionals and their firms against allegations of malpractice and professional negligence with an understanding that the case is about far more than the money in dispute — it is about the professional standing that allows them to keep practicing and serving clients.

We represent lawyers, accountants, architects, engineers, and other licensed professionals in malpractice lawsuits, in fee disputes that lead to counterclaims, and in licensing and disciplinary proceedings, including ethics complaints, trust account audits and bar admissions/ re-admissions. We work with professional-liability insurers to coordinate coverage and defense. We know the professional standards these practitioners are actually held to, and we hold the opposing side to their burden of proving a genuine failure to meet those standards, not merely an outcome the client did not like. Our clients get a defense conducted with discretion and a focus on protecting the practice they have spent years building.
