Missed Statute of Limitation Legal Malpractice
When you hire an attorney, you have a right to expect your legal matter to be handled competently. Lawyers are bound by standards of professional responsibility to file claims, motions, and other paperwork in your case within the time limits set forth by the law or the judge presiding over your case. Your lawyer is responsible for knowing the statute of limitations and filing deadlines necessary to move your case forward. Unfortunately, attorneys sometimes miss important filing deadlines that cause cases to be dismissed because the statutes of have expired.
Your attorney may possibly fail to properly represent you for any of the following reasons:
Missed filing deadline or exceeded time limitations
Unaware of statute of limitations for your claim
Filing in the wrong place
Failing to name a necessary defendant
Incomplete paperwork
A note about legal malpractice
To be an effective legal malpractice law firm, it is necessary to understand all sides of a case, and how the attorneys involved should have proceeded.
