Who Can Commit Professional Negligence?

Injuries from professional negligence can be either physical or financial in nature. While medical malpractice can result in severe damage to patients, a negligent accountant can seriously cripple a client’s financial well-being. All professionals need to be held accountable for their actions so they maintain proper duty of care at all times.

Any of the following may commit professional negligence, leading to harm and damages:

  • Physicians
  • Dentists
  • Chiropractors
  • Psychiatrists
  • Pharmacists
  • Nurses
  • Physical therapists
  • Engineers
  • Architects
  • Contractors
  • Attorneys
  • Accountants
  • Insurance agents
  • Fire investigators
  • Claim handlers

Proving Complex Professional Negligence Cases

Proving professional negligence can be extremely difficult. Receiving poor service does not necessarily mean there was professional negligence. To prevail, we still need to demonstrate that there was a breach of professional duty. This often involves obtaining expert witness testimony which can explain how an accident could have been avoided with proper care.
