Lawyers in New York are held to high ethical and professional standards. When lawyers don't do their jobs properly, they can be held responsible — similar to the way doctors can be held accountable for providing poor medical care.

Weisfuse & Weisfuse, LLP — Keeping Attorneys Accountable to Their Clients
The standards for attorneys in malpractice cases are similar to those applied to doctors. A lawyer can be held liable for a client's damages if one of the following actions results in the loss of the client's case or another economic loss to the client:
- Neglect care of a client's case
- Failure to start a lawsuit in a timely manner
- Failure to properly argue a theory of law
- Negligent drafting of legal documents
- Providing improper legal advice
