When individuals consult the services of an attorney, they expect those services to be completed in their best interest.

Examples of Legal Malpractice
- Statute of limitations - In many legal cases, there is a maximum amount of time after an event that legal proceedings may occur. If that deadline is missed because a lawyer failed to take action, a client may lose the ability to prosecute their case and recover damages.
- Many individuals consult attorneys for advice and services in business transactions. It is an attorney's professional responsibility to present this information to benefit the client to the best of their knowledge. If an attorney did not accurately predict what would happen in a business transaction, the lawyer may be responsible.
- Attorneys may be responsible for giving bad advice and missing deadlines, which can result in damages to or against the client.
