What To Do When An Attorney Lets You Down
Attorneys abide by a code of ethics that requires them to represent their clients to the best of their ability. An incompetent attorney can do great harm to a person. Unless you are a lawyer yourself, it can be hard to know when your attorney is not living up to the standards of the profession. Unfortunately, that means that you may not be able to respond to the actions of a negligent or incompetent lawyer until after the damage has been done.
If you are suffering because of your attorney’s incompetence, taking that attorney to court may be the best or only remedy available.
At Wilcoxen Callaham, LLP our attorneys are committed to helping you get compensation for any financial or other harm suffered as a result of your former attorney’s negligence. Our goal is to deliver legal service that satisfies the highest standards of our industry.
Legal Malpractice Attorneys Serving California
Proving attorney malpractice can be challenging, but at Wilcoxen Callaham, LLP, we are well-versed in handling these cases. To succeed, you must demonstrate not only that your attorney’s legal errors caused you harm but also that the outcome of your case would have been different without those mistakes.
For example, an attorney may have failed to investigate key facts in your case, demonstrating a lack of due diligence. They may also have missed critical deadlines for filing documents or neglected to inform you of settlement offers from other parties. If you believe your attorney has not acted in your best interests, please call us today to discuss your case.
At Wilcoxen Callaham, LLP we will review your case and inform you of your options. We are committed to holding other attorneys to the same high standard to which we hold ourselves.
