Always follow correct procedure
One thing that professional negligence solicitors must do if they are to avoid potential liability for professional negligence claims is to follow the correct protocols.
Yes, even professional negligence lawyers sometimes come a cropper themselves and if protocols are not followed they risk incurring cost penalties or having cases thrown out before they are even able to reach court.
Fortunately, for any professional negligence lawyer worth his or her salt, the procedures are clearly laid out in the various pre-action protocols which were introduced by the Civil Procedure Rules (CPR) of 1998.
