How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• Allegations that amount to nothing more than a ‘dissatisfaction with strategic choices’ will not support a malpractice claim as a matter of law.”
• “A conflict of interest, even if a violation of the Code of Professional Responsibility, does not by itself support a legal malpractice cause of action.”
• “[T]he plaintiff must show that but for the attorney’s negligence, what would have been a favorable outcome was an unfavorable outcome.”
• “Expert testimony is sometimes required to establish the standard of care in the legal profession, whether the defendant-attorney failed to comply with that standard, and whether the negligence proximately caused any injury to the plaintiff-client.” (citation omitted)
