Can I Really Sue My Lawyer for Negligence?

Sue My Lawyer

Many people have a special relationship with their lawyer that makes them feel uncomfortable about complaining if they suspect legal negligence. This article shows that there is no need to be embarrassed as your lawyer will be covered by professional liability insurance for just such eventualities.

You may have known your lawyer for a long time. They may have been privy to your most sensitive situations. You may even socialise with them, so what do you do if you think they may be guilty of legal negligence? Are you too embarrassed to make a claim in case it spoils the relationship?

Think about a different situation. You are driving along in your car, you stop at a roundabout when suddenly bang! Someone crashes into the back of your car causing quite a lot of damage. You get out and confront the other driver only to find that it your solicitor. What would you do then? Would you accept an apology and say no more about it or would you make a professional negligence claim against them?
