Frequently Asked Questions
What types of professionals can I claim against?
Claims can involve lawyers providing poor advice, accountants or auditors making errors, engineers or surveyors delivering substandard work, mortgage brokers giving negligent financial advice and other professionals whose actions or omissions cause financial harm.
What evidence is needed for a professional negligence claim?
Evidence often includes contracts, correspondence, financial statements, expert reports, and documentation showing the loss or damage caused by the professional’s actions. Lawyers help gather and present this evidence to strengthen your claim.

Basics of Professional Negligence
Professional negligence covers the actions and mistakes of professionals in performing their duties. If you have suffered from personal injury or financial loss because of the negligence of a professional, you may be entitled to compensation.
If you are entitled to make a claim, you may also be able to claim for the money you lost and for damages.
Claims for professional negligence are usually restricted by the period of statutory limitations, typically six years. You must make your claim within that period or the action may not be able to proceed.
