Solicitor Negligence Claim
When you hire a solicitor, you expect the person to be an expert that you can trust to protect your interests at all times. However, if your legal issue is not handled properly, you may be entitled to make a claim against your solicitor.
In the UK, the legal profession is regulated by the Solicitors’ Regulation Authority (SRA) which is responsible for maintaining standards in the legal profession. The Solicitor’s Code of Conduct provides useful information and guidance on whether you have a genuine case for negligence. If you are unsure, we can help you.
What can you claim for?
Most claims can be complex and it is important to instruct a specialist team of lawyers to explore your case. There are a number of issues you can claim for, but some of the most common ones are when your solicitor has:
- Missed the limitation date
- Caused your claim to be struck out by the court
- Sued the wrong party
- Under-settled a personal injury claim
- Failed to identify a defect in the title of your property
- Made an error when drafting a lease
- Failed to administer a deceased’s estate correctly
- Failed to serve a notice on your behalf by given deadline
- Failed to advise you about planning permission and building regulations
- Failed to draft a Will properly
- Acted in conflict of interest
- Failed to advise you properly
