In a legal malpractice action you will first have to demonstrate that you would have been able to recover if it was not for the negligence of your attorney. Our attorneys will fully investigate your claim to demonstrate your underlying case. We will then investigate the actions of your attorney, consult with witnesses, and, if warranted, prepare a compelling case to demonstrate that your attorney's actions caused the detriment in your case.

Our attorneys are experienced with handling all of the following legal malpractice actions:

• Conflict of interest
• Failure to file a case timely
• Attorney negligence
• Missed discovery
• Failure to advise of statute of limitations
• Negligent handling

A legal malpractice lawsuit is based on an allegation that a lawyer negligently performed legal services on behalf of a client in an underlying claim or legal matter. Some of the most common ways a lawyer might mishandle a case is by missing a statute of limitations, failing to properly advise a client about the details of a settlement, failing to prosecute a case and having it dismissed, and through a conflict of interest between the lawyer and the client. If the lawyer's mistake caused the client harm, a lawsuit or claim is often filed to recover damages. At Slater & Zurz, we have the experience, competence, and ability to handle such complicated cases.

At Slater & Zurz, we bring malpractice cases through a team approach, with the client being an integral member of the team. Working closely with the client, we analyze the merits of each case, evaluate the underlying facts and law, and develop a strategy. Prompt claim resolution or, when necessary, detailed trial preparation is our goal.
