Financial health is crucial to families, businesses and individuals alike. When we turn to an accountant for tax preparation, estate planning, auditing or other assistance, we entrust that professional with our financial well-being. When the accountant makes an error, acts unethically or otherwise violates our trust, he or she may have committed malpractice. Accounting malpractice can result in severe tax penalties, missed opportunities and other financial hardships. Examples of accountant malpractice include rendering erroneous tax advice; failing to correctly or timely prepare and/or file tax returns; committing billing or other fraud; failing to detect fraud, theft or embezzlement; and estate planning errors or omissions.

If you believe you have suffered financial harm as a result of accounting errors or misconduct, it is crucial to consult with an experienced professional negligence attorney as soon as possible. Our skilled trial lawyers can help you secure all of the compensation to which you may be entitled. In some cases, you may be entitled to punitive damages for another party’s wrongdoing. Our dedicated attorneys can also help you deal with your insurance company, as well as the insurer of the other party or parties. The insurance companies have lawyers working hard to minimize their payouts; you need a lawyer who will work just as hard for you.
