Thomas A. Moore, senior partner of Kramer, Dillof, Livingston & Moore, and Matthew Gaier, a partner at the firm, write that cases involving a doctor who, when examining an individual on behalf of a third party, commits an affirmatively negligent act that causes direct injury to the person being examined are fairly straightforward. Determining the liability of a doctor who makes an affirmative representation regarding medical findings or gives affirmative advice for treatment to the person being examined, which the person then relies upon, is more complicated, and warrants an examination of those cases in which such claims have been recognized and those that have been rejected.

The legal profession is undergoing a transformation in the way legal services are obtained and delivered. Technology is partly responsible for this change: The rise of Web-based applications has increased the opportunity for attorneys to interact with clients online, but has also introduced new, business-savvy competitors into the legal space. Economic recession is also partly responsible: Consumers cannot afford the high cost of traditional legal services, and are looking for alternatives.
