Litigation Negligence Solicitors
Litigation is complex, and even small mistakes by legal professionals can have serious
consequences for litigants. At WE Solicitors, we understand how devastating litigation
negligence can be and are here to help those affected.
What is Litigation Negligence?
Litigation negligence occurs when a solicitor or legal team fails to act competently during the course of legal proceedings. This can result in cases being lost, financial loss in having to pay compensation, or other serious setbacks for the client, and having to pay your opponent’s legal fees.
Common examples of Litigation Negligence
- Missing Court Deadlines or Limitation Periods
Failing to file documents or take action within the required timeframe can result in claims being dismissed, leaving clients with no legal recourse. - Settling claims at undervalue
A solicitor must obtain a client’s informed consent before settling a case. Settlements made without this consent can be challenged and may cause significant financial loss if the advice given about the value of your claim was negligent. - Failing to obtain key evidence or make key arguments
Omitting crucial evidence or legal arguments can weaken a case and may prevent
clients from achieving the outcome they deserve.
