When clients ask me as an experienced Media Legal Malpractice Lawyer, what types of damages they can expect to recover in a malpractice action. Clients often think of pain and suffering – which one can generally get in personal injury actions based on physical injury; however, those types of damages are not recoverable in legal malpractice claims. In order to have a valid malpractice case, you must have actually suffered pecuniary harm and actual economic damages. Those are the only things you’ll be able to recover under basic malpractice law. In some instances, you can get punitive damages, but those cases are rare.
