Scott Bertschi, a partner at Atlanta-based Arnall Golden Gregory, has the big-picture perspective on lawyers in trouble. He’s just finished editing A 50-State Survey of Legal Malpractice Law, published by the American Bar Association, which gives an overview of the laws governing attorney wrongdoing in every jurisdiction in the country.

As many once-regional law firms have spread their reach across a multitude of states, they’ve become vulnerable to malpractices claims from more jurisdictions. Bertschi, who contributed the chapter on Georgia legal malpractice, said the book pulls it all together and shows similarities and some vast differences in malpractice laws state by state.
