Professional Negligence

In today’s world we rely on expert advice on an ever increasing scale. Unfortunately, there may be a time when you find you have been let down by a professional whom you trusted to act with care and skill in performing their duties. When this occurs, it can often cause a substantial financial loss which is not your fault.

We have a specialist professional negligence team able to assist both individuals and businesses of all sizes to help recover loss suffered as a result of failings by a professional.

What a is a professional negligence claim?

All professionals owe a duty of care towards their clients under which they must perform their job to a reasonable standard and with reasonable care. If a professional makes a mistake which no reasonable person in their position would make then they are likely to be in breach of their duty of care to you. In such a case you may be entitled to bring a claim against them for damages as a result of their negligence. Most professionals are obliged to carry professional indemnity insurance for this reason, meaning claims against professionals are often covered and handled by their insurer.
