Unfortunately, most lawyers will experience a malpractice claim (or the threat of a claim) at least once in their career. For most, this is unsettling and daunting. This program is designed to familiarize participants with the anatomy of a claim and will address what happens when someone makes (or threatens) a claim against you, what not to do, what your insurance carrier will expect, and what happens when the State Bar is involved. While hopefully you’ll never need this information, you’ll be glad you have it in your back pocket, just in case.
