We team with our clients and their insurers to achieve the best possible outcomes in professional liability claims.
Our lawyers defend the interests of clients in various areas, including the legal, healthcare, financial, design, construction, and insurance professions. The nature of professional liability litigation presents unique challenges that our firm is well prepared to understand and address.
The widening knowledge gap between expert professionals and the general public provides fertile ground for growing skepticism and mistrust. Professionals are frequently the targets of lawsuits due to a lack of understanding about their roles and the services they provide. Often blamed for issues beyond their control and outside the scope of their responsibilities, professionals are also viewed as “deep pockets” with ample insurance and financial resources when culpable parties are uncovered or insolvent.
Legal defense of professionals requires an ability to comprehend complex subject matter and the capacity to dive into technical details. Adding to the complexity is the myriad of state and local rules and regulations potentially applicable in each suit. Our attorneys have extensive experience in representing a wide range of licensed professionals, including architects, engineers, geologists, surveyors, pharmacists, beauty salon owners, med spas, estheticians, laser hair removal technicians, and massage therapists.
Each professional liability claim is unique. So we work closely with our clients and experts in their field to fully understand our client’s work, and their position on the allegations against them, in developing a thorough defense strategy. Our experience and individualized approach enable us to effectively defend our clients and their insurers to resolve outstanding claims.
