In case you missed it last week, LexisNexis released a very interesting White Paper titled When It Comes to Legal Malpractice, an Ounce of Prevention Is Worth a Lot More Than a Pound of Cure.

· According to a 2007 study by the ABA Standing Committee on Professional Liability, attorneys who were in practice between 11-20 years had the largest share of actions brought against them.
· Lists the most common reasons attorneys are sued
