Legal malpractice is when a lawyer does not fulfill their obligations to a client or performs their duties in a negligent manner that causes harm to the client.

BEVERLY HILLS, CA, UNITED STATES, December 8, 2017 /EINPresswire.com/ -- People who are victim to legal malpractice can do something about it— they can sue to recover monetary damages from the lawyer.

According to Justia, a legal information and resource website, “Legal malpractice happens when an attorney handles a case inappropriately due to negligence or with intent to harm and causes damages to a client. To prevail in a legal malpractice lawsuit, in most jurisdictions, you will need to prove an attorney-client relationship between you and the lawyer, a breach of the duty to provide skillful and competent representation (negligence), causation, and a financial loss”

Simon Etehad, an LA attorney, handles many types of legal malpractice cases. He has helped many people across Southern California who have had incompetent lawyers represent them.

“Lawyers are held to ethical, moral and legal standards of conduct. If your lawyer simple did not do his job right and it cost you, we can recover your money and damages,” Mr. Etehad said. “Lawyers are no different than any other profession.”

Like every state, California has a Bar Association. The California Bar Association’s code of ethics “is admissible as evidence of the standard of care in malpractice lawsuits.” according to Cornell University’s School of Law’s website.

Furthermore, Mr. Etehad says suing a lawyer for malpractice can be done on grounds other than just ethical violations. The Cornell University website lists many of the actionable causes for legal malpractice. But, you do not have to read the website and try to understand everything it says.
