Practice Areas & Industries: Galloway, Johnson, Tompkins, Burr & Smith, A Professional Law Corporation

Practice/Industry Group Overview

Successfully defending professional liability cases poses two unique challenges. First, by definition, the issues are as technical and complex as the disciplines we defend: architecture, engineering, medicine, finance, and many other areas of applied science.

The second challenge is related to the nature of the defendants themselves. For these professionals, there is much more at stake than a monetary penalty. Where a quick settlement might be expedient in some other situation, in these cases there is an onerous cost, in both goodwill and professional standing.
