Syllabus

Trial court did not err when it determined the substance of appellant's verified complaint sounded in legal malpractice and the one-year statute of limitations barred appellant's claims, as a matter of law. Because the allegations in the verified complaint focus on the manner in which appellee represented appellant, other duplicative claims pleaded as fraud, breach of contract, or unjust enrichment were subsumed within the legal-malpractice claim. Judgment affirmed.
