Re: mal practice

Malpractice concerns negligence on the part of a professional. Medical, dental and legal malpractice are examples. Usually, the professional carries malpractice insurance. If not, and the case is prosecuted successfully against him or her, the professional's personal assets are possibly subject to the execution of a judgment. Good luck. Best, ME Zuller
