What is professional negligence law?
Professional negligence law deals with situations where a professional, such as a doctor, lawyer, or accountant, fails to perform their duties to the required standard of care, resulting in harm or loss to their client.
This type of law allows clients to seek compensation for damages caused by the professional's mistakes or omissions.
To prove professional negligence, the client must show that the professional owed them a duty of care, breached that duty, and caused damage as a result.
