http://www.ftlucianolaw.com Unfortunately, estate and trust lawyers have been known to make mistakes that could seriously impact their clients. In recent months, our New Jersey legal malpractice law firm has sued such lawyers in two cases. Watch this video to learn more about these situations.
In one situation, my client inherited real estate properties and engaged a lawyer to file an estate tax application. However, the application was sent in late, and the IRS sent my client a deficiency notice showing millions of dollars owed in tax liability. My client engaged another lawyer to litigate this case against the IRS. Although this lawyer did drive down what my client owed the IRS, that lawyer also charged my client over $500,000 for his services. We sued for the substantial amount of damages that my client paid, and my client was happy with his recovery. I’m working on another case where my client, a young widow, was supposed to be the principle beneficiary of the trust. However, a lawyer did not transfer the ownership of the life insurance policy to the trust correctly. We have filed a lawsuit against that lawyer for filing documents incorrectly.
