The term ‘malpractice’ is generally associated with carelessness or negligence by medical personnel.
But other professionals, from plumbers to accountants to architects, dentists and electricians, are also held to certain standards of care.
That means they can be sued for providing sub-standard services – especially when said services cause injury, harm or financial burden to others.
If you believe you’re a victim of professional negligence, you’ll find help with Super Lawyers.
Professional malpractice lawyers can either represent the plaintiff or the defense.
While representing the plaintiff, their goal is to seek fair and just compensation for damages associated with injuries, loss of wages, or medical expenses.
They will also investigate and report code violations and negotiate with insurance providers or opposing counsel.
When they work on behalf of the defense, they will help determine whether the professional is actually liable for any injuries, evaluate the extent of damages, file court documents, and advise clients on their best course of action.
