Legal Question in Legal Malpractice in New York
Malpractice
I engaged an attorney and he claimed that he was negotiating an alleged debt.
Instead of negotiating as he claimed I received notice that their was a judgment lodged against me.
Subsequently i settled with this party but I believe that the attorney who ''claimed'' he negotiated deal should be held liable.
If nothing else he should be made to reimburse me for all of my expenses?
Comments?

Re: Malpractice
Held liable for what?
Did the attorney incur the debt? Did the attorney cause the judgment?
It seems unlikely.
