Malpractice

Legal and Accounting Malpractice can occur when a lawyer, accountant, or staff member makes serious mistakes in regard to a client matter. Usually this happens because the lawyer, accountant, or staff member are too busy. Sometimes, it happens because the lawyer or accountant let their self-interest or greed take precedence. That is not allowed. All clients are entitled to undivided loyalty and quality service from the professionals that serve them. If a professional cannot do the job that he or she agreed to undertake or assume, he or she is duty-bound to tell the client early so the client can hire another professional. If the professional does not have sufficient experience to handle the matter, then he or she should not take on the matter. If a professional is too busy, he or she should not take or keep the case. In busy offices, the above happens too often. Clients should never be the guinea pigs for professionals delivering faulty work, substandard, or inadequate services. Professionals have a duty to keep the client informed on all things, and if bad things happen because the client is not informed, that too can be grounds for claims for Malpractice.
