Malpractice suits against attorneys are increasingly common in today’s legal landscape. Severe financial consequences, the threat to the reputation of the attorney and firm and the impact on retaining present clients and obtaining future clients make these cases extremely significant to law firms.
KDV’s Legal Malpractice attorneys have significant experience defending law firms and their insurers in such cases successfully. Our clients benefit from our immediate assessment of and response to the claim and the underlying lawsuit or transaction. Many legal malpractice insurance policies provide that, with the carrier’s approval, the insured may choose its defense counsel.
KDV is often the choice of fellow attorneys who have been sued and KDV has achieved success in defending the interests of these professionals.
