Mistakes Lawyers Make
You Deserved Better
Pennsylvania Legal Malpractice Attorneys
Hiring a lawyer to represent you, someone to protect your rights and your interests in matters very important to your present and future security — that's a big decision. In exchange for that trust, you have the right to expect that your lawyer will provide competent legal advice, service and representation while upholding his or her professional responsibilities to you and to the profession's ethical standards of conduct.
That said — lawyers are human beings and are not expected to provide "perfect" representation. However, if you had an attorney who made serious errors in his or her analysis of the law, or who failed to meet filing deadlines or who didn't adhere to the procedural rules of the court with jurisdiction over your case — you deserved better.
At Jacobson, Julius & McPartland , we take our professional responsibilities very seriously, and the attorneys here care about our clients. In cases of legal malpractice, we aggressively pursue just remedies through both mediation and litigation, and we take cases from all parts of the state.

Like everyone else, many of the mistakes that lawyers make are relatively small and have no real effect on the outcome of the cases in question. Others, however, are big mistakes — mistakes that clients ultimately pay for in terms of not receiving compensation for injuries, or losing their personal freedom, or seeing a business they've worked years to establish and build come crashing down.
Examples of these mistakes include:
- Missing critical statutes
- Missing the statute of limitations on filing
- Failure to answer a complaint
- Failure to adhere to a court order
- Failure to follow the rules of procedure
- Failure to timely respond to a pleading
- Failure to raise appropriate objections
- Encouraging you to settle for too little
- Trial errors, including failures in investigation, witness preparation, discovery or cross-examination
