A professional malpractice claim alleges that a licensed professional—such as a lawyer, accountant, or architect—failed to meet the standard of care expected in their field, resulting in financial loss or other harm. In Caroline County, these cases are filed as complaints and proceed through service, discovery, and potentially a trial. The discovery phase may involve interrogatories, requests for production of documents, and depositions of witnesses and attorneys. Mr. Sris and his Of Counsel team manage this process, working to build a compelling case for recovery while addressing any defenses that may arise. Because the applicable statute of limitations for malpractice varies, it is important to consult an attorney as soon as possible after discovering the alleged error.
