I can prove each element of legal malpractice Should I bring a case
Not necessarily. Legal malpractice cases are very expensive to prosecute, as attorneys ordinarily dig in and fight, and insurance companies are usually content to let the litigation proceed for a long time (sometimes beyond trial) before offering a fair settlement. There must be a lot of money at stake before embarking on a legal malpractice case.
While there are no hard and fast rules, I would ordinarily caution against bringing a legal malpractice case unless there were damages well into the six figures.
Another potential problem to understand before bringing a legal malpractice case is the fact that many attorneys lack professional liability insurance. These are often the same attorneys who make themselves "judgment proof" by putting their assets in a spouse's name or making other perfectly legal maneuvers. Most verdicts are meaningless without financial recovery, so the availability of insurance or other means of recovery should be considered as early as possible.
