Professional Negligence
Professional negligence occurs when a professional fails to meet the expected standard of care, resulting in harm or loss. This can lead to legal claims or disciplinary actions. Our firm represents clients in both defending and pursuing professional negligence cases.
Professionals are held to a higher legal standard in the discharge of their professional duties. In the process of providing professional services to the public, any professional can become the subject of a professional negligence action or complaint. The legal consequences facing a professional for failing to meet professional standards can result in a professional negligence claim and / or a disciplinary proceeding before their professional licensing body. In addition, an employer of a professional may also attract vicarious liability for the professional negligence of its employees. Legal disputes with insurers can also emerge from professional negligence actions.

We also represent clients in dealing with disciplinary proceedings. We offer years of experience in successfully representing all manner of regulated professionals
