You hire a professional when you are faced with a complex problem with serious potential consequences. When you need legal advice, you hire a lawyer. For tax advice, an accountant. For stock picks and portfolio management, a stockbroker. And for a real estate or insurance transactions, you hire a broker or insurance agent, respectively. You do not expect to have a problem down the road because you hired a professional you thought you could trust.
That trust is violated when your professional advisor lets you down. He may give you bad advice, fail to warn you of the risks of a particular course of action, or complete a task negligently. These mistakes may come at a great cost to you.
David A. Axelrod & Associates can help. We look at the mistakes that your professional advisor made and determine whether he is potentially liable for those mistakes. If so, we attempt to right the wrong – to put you in the position you were in before the mistakes were made.
The attorneys at David A. Axelrod & Associates look for all potential sources of recovery, beyond the individual professional you trusted. We ask whether that professional was part of a larger network, what kinds of insurance policies were in effect, and whether someone else had responsibility to prevent the kind of wrong that you suffered. You may be able to recover not only from the negligent professional, but also from his or her supervisor or insurer.
