Experienced Solicitors for When a Duty of Care has Been Breached


Professionals such as solicitors, accountants, surveyors and architects have a duty of care to their clients to perform their professional obligations to a high level of skill and care.

Unfortunately, professionals sometimes fail to perform to the required standards, resulting in damage or loss to their clients. For example, a personal injury solicitor may have significantly under-settled a claim for damages, a financial advisor may have given the wrong advice resulting in financial loss, or a surveyor may have failed to advise on structural damage resulting in huge repair bills or other losses – whatever the case, if the level of service has fallen below that expected of a reasonably competent professional and this has caused you measurable loss, you may be entitled to compensation.

Pursuing and Defending A Professional Negligence Claim

If you have been given inadequate professional advice, you may have a claim for professional negligence against the individual who gave the advice, or the firm they work for.

Equally, you may be a professional or a firm who is faced with a professional negligence claim from a former client.
