Your
client fails to pay you for fees and then sues you for malpractice.
You know you did nothing wrong and, in fact, got a better result than
was reasonable to expect. You hear these stories everyday, but now it
has happened to you. You can't even walk away! Our attorneys have the
highest reputation for integrity and bring unparalleled discretion and
judgment to bear in these sometimes emotional, and professionally
