Retaining Curtis & Associates
As must be evident from reading this web site, we represent clients who have been injured by attorneys. This is our entire practice. You must have also figured that our practice involves very intense litigation, as well as some appellate work.
While we view the judicial system from the perspective of creating a remedy for injured clients, and we deal with aggrieved clients day in and day out, we cannot provide legal services to most of the people who call upon us for help. It is just too expensive for most people to sue their lawyer. Over 95% of the people who have been injured by their attorney just do not have a remedy in the courts, even though they have valid claims. The cost of litigation simply places a lawsuit out of reach for economic reasons.
Recognizing this fact, we built this web site so that you might come to understand your legal malpractice claims, and think through various remedies that might be available to you other than suing your attorney. Most importantly, we hope this site provides some basic information about how you can avoid trouble with your attorney even before it happens.
Regarding our firm, you should know that the majority of our work is done on an hourly fee basis. We almost never take a case on a purely contingent basis. However, if you are able to pay our fees to get your case through pre-trial discovery, which could take a year or two, and will always cost more than $100,000, and the liability of your attorney is solid, we will sometimes finance the legal fees to put on a trial.
