When Lawyers Need a Malpractice Lawyer, They Call Him
Manage episode 434056929 series 1185072
When a legal malpractice claim is filed, regardless of whether or not it's meritorious, that means an attorney's relationship with their client has broken down.
On today's episode of our podcast, On The Merits, we're talking with Tyler Maulsby, an attorney at the firm Frankfurt Kurnit Klein & Selz who represents other attorneys in malpractice cases. A recent report found that multi-million dollar malpractice payouts from legal insurers are increasing. Maulsby talks about what trends he's seeing and how his clients react when they get hit with a charge of malpractice.
Maulsby says one common mistake: attorneys tend to want to defend their entire professional record in a malpractice case, when actually they should only be trying to refute the facts at issue. He also says some malpractice claims could have been avoided had the attorney been more judicious about which clients to take on.
