Litigation Legal Malpractice Lawyers Serving Clients Across California and Beyond

Lawyers must adhere to a number of duties when representing clients in litigation. In some situations, lawyers fail to live up to these duties. For example, when a lawyer fails to file a lawsuit before the applicable statute of limitations, a client with an otherwise worthy claim will be denied justice. If your attorney has committed actions that you believe to be malpractice, and you have suffered severe financial harm as a result, it is important that you discuss your situation with a lawyer.

It can be difficult to place your trust in another lawyer after your original lawyer breached his or her duty. At Greene Broillet & Wheeler, LLP, we will work diligently to earn and keep your trust. From our office in Santa Monica, we represent clients across the Los Angeles area and Southern California. While no lawyer is happy about suing another member of the profession, we believe legal malpractice suits are necessary to hold negligent members of our profession accountable.

There are winners and losers in litigation. Simply losing a case does not mean that malpractice occurred. An attorney can make errors, however, that constitute legal malpractice. Some of these failures can include:

  • Failure to file a lawsuit within the statute of limitations
  • Failure to file or respond to motions in a timely fashion
  • Failure to properly investigate the case

If we accept your case, we will take immediate action to prove that your lawyer breached his or her duty of care, that you suffered damages, and that this breach caused your damages. Our diligent, comprehensive approach often yields positive outcomes for our clients. In fact, we obtained the largest legal malpractice verdict in California history.

Call 866-576-1200 or contact us online to discuss your situation. We represent legal malpractice clients on a contingent fee basis. Our law firm will not accept fees or recover our expenses unless we are successful in your claim.

Impact to Change

Much of our firm's work involves taking on large corporations, insurance companies and government agencies. By and large, these entities oppose change and will expend seemingly unlimited resources to preserve the status quo. At GB&W, we relish taking on this level of opposition. Through our many years of practice, our personal injury lawyers and staff have achieved unparalleled success in trial and other forums against these opponents. Taking on these companies serves a dual purpose. First, our efforts help our clients recover the compensation they need to move forward after a life-changing injury. Secondly, our work makes communities safer places to live. In this way, everyone can benefit from our work.
