What Is Professional Negligence and Malpractice?
Professionals in certain fields — such as stock brokers, accountants, insurance agents, lawyers and doctors — are required to uphold a standard of care to clients in their profession. Professional negligence and malpractice may occur when they fail to meet that standard of care. It is important to note that a bad outcome does not necessarily mean that there has been professional negligence. Sometimes we do not get the result we want even though no one has committed professional negligence.
