Legal Question in Legal Malpractice in California

Re: Between hard rock and nowhere

Since you state that "you" are suing an attorney, I do not understand why you must dissolve a corporation. Also, if you have a good case, some attorneys (such as our firm)) take such cases on a contingency. I would be happy to meet with you and review your file without charge if you call my office at 714 363 0220 for an appointment.

Re: Between hard rock and nowhere

Of course, a corporation can not be represented by a non lawyer. Question, do YOU as well as the corporation have a cause of action against the attorney? If not dissolving the corporation may not help you.

Re: Between hard rock and nowhere

Thank you for your inquiry.

Further clarification is needed regarding your circumstances. If you are suing personally, or you can pursue the lawsuit from this point forward as an individual, there should be no reason to dissolve your corporation. If not, the corporate entity must have an attorney as a representative in court. I am just speculating, but it sounds like you might have a corporation, you are the sole shareholder, and the corporate entity is the party to the suit. It also sounds like your corporation was paying an attorney by the hour and has run low on funds. If you are in need of legal assistance, my office would be happy to evaluate the case for contingency fee representation. If you are in Northern California, feel free to contact me at the telephone number below. Best of luck and best wishes.
