Overview

When faced with legal malpractice claims, Goldberg Kohn's highly experienced attorneys effectively and efficiently defend and protect law firms and their lawyers. “Lawyers’ lawyers” is a title we wear with pride. Using the utmost discretion, our attorneys defend large law firms ranging in size from 100 to thousands of attorneys against allegations of, including, but not limited to:

  • Negligence and Breach of Duty
  • Conflict of Interest
  • Breach of Fiduciary Duty

In addition to malpractice and similar cases, we help clients navigate professional liability obligations in the context of compensation disputes and other internal firm matters.

Throughout our representation of law firms and lawyers, we have advised attorneys in a range of practices areas, including tax, mergers and acquisitions, securities, customs duties, estate planning, bankruptcy and litigation.

As a long-standing partner of the Attorneys’ Liability Assurance Society (ALAS), Goldberg Kohn is frequently called upon to counsel clients in high-stakes situations and is often retained by firms to assist in subsequent matters.

With deep negotiation and litigation experience, our attorneys defend clients inside and outside the courtroom. We have favorably resolved numerous matters for our law firm clients in arbitration and mediation settings, and when it comes to litigation, our team has successfully defended clients throughout all phases of litigation in both trial and appellate court proceedings.
