At the Law Office of Burns & Jain, Landon’s legal malpractice cases involve proving that the client’s former attorney failed to comply with their professional and ethical obligation to the client and that this failure resulted in harm to the client. Proving harm in a legal malpractice case involves proving the client’s original case in addition to the connection between the former attorney’s wrongful actions and the client’s harmful result.
