Professional Liability Litigation

In today’s business environment, companies and individuals that provide professional services increasingly are exposed to lawsuits based upon claimed errors or deficiencies in the provision of those services. Similarly, as business and society become more complex, the need for professional services increases, exposing companies and individuals that hire professionals to damages where these professionals do not properly discharge their functions.

Anania Bandklayder Blackwell Baumgarten Torricella & Stein has handled professional liability claims involving lawyers, doctors, pharmacists, accountants, insurance agents, and engineers. The firm’s lawyers recognize that the litigation of professional liability claims requires aggressiveness and sensitivity, in that victims of professional negligence often have suffered damages caused by professionals in whom they’ve reposed trust and professionals that have rendered valuable services often confront claims that are unfounded and involve not only money, but professional reputation. The firm strives to balance those competing approaches, doggedly pursuing claims or defenses where necessary and actively encouraging early resolution of disputes where appropriate.
