Mistakes happen. Tax liens during a title search are missed. A lawsuit isn’t filed within the statute of limitations. An attorney fails to follow the right procedure for an appeal.
The normal instinct is to simply move forward and try to fix it. If the problem can’t be fixed, many lawyers choose to either ignore it hoping it just goes away, or worse yet, fall on the sword for something that may not even be malpractice. More often than not, these actions create problems worse than the mistake itself.
