Can I initiate a legal malpractice lawsuit if my lawyer failed to file paperwork on time?
Return to VideosTranscript:
Very often, legal malpractice occurs because the lawyer failed to file paperwork or other important documents, either with the court or with another attorney in a timely fashion. Sometimes those can be reversed by a court but other times they are irreversible, the case is permanently lost and there is a potential for a legal malpractice claim.
