Professional Negligence Lawyers
REPRESENTING CLIENTS AFFECTED BY PROFESSIONAL MISCONDUCT & MALPRACTICE
Individuals and businesses routinely deal with professionals in just about every industry. A “professional” can be anyone who holds themselves out as an expert or has particularly specialized knowledge or skill in a specific area. Examples include doctors, lawyers, accountants, journalists, landscapers, general contractors, engineers, realtors, architects, financial advisors, and many others.
Professionals owe a higher duty to their clients and customers than ordinary citizens do. Generally, professionals must act with the same level of care that a reasonably prudent professional in that line of work would exercise under similar circumstances. Malpractice occurs when the professional deviates from that standard of care, resulting in injury or other damages to the client, customer, or patient.
If you have been negatively affected by a professional’s negligent or wrongful conduct, you have the right to take legal action. Reach out to the team at Potts Law Firm right away to schedule a complimentary consultation and case review. Our professional negligence attorneys can advise you on your legal options and provide detailed information specific to your case.

WHAT IS PROFESSIONAL NEGLIGENCE?
Professional negligence occurs any time a professional fails to uphold the duty of care they owe to another person, business entity, or some other party. When such conduct leads to injury—physical, financial, or otherwise—the affected party can bring a claim against the professional and seek compensation for their damages.
Examples of common professional negligence cases include claims involving:

There may be some minor differences based on the specifics of the claim filed. A general rule to follow is that you must file a professional malpractice claim within two years, depending on the state in which you are filing the lawsuit and other factors.
