Malpractice And Disciplinary Action Defense For Attorneys And Judges

For more than 30 years, attorneys, judges, commissioners, magistrates and justices of the peace accused of ethical improprieties and/or professional malpractice have turned to the attorneys of Gibson Law Partners, LLC, in Lafayette for the effective representation they need when facing disciplinary board actions and malpractice lawsuits. Our team defends legal professionals throughout Louisiana who are appearing before the Louisiana Attorney Disciplinary Board (ODC) or Judiciary Commission, disciplinary systems established by the Louisiana Supreme Court over attorneys and judges, as well as disciplinary action initiated in the United States District Courts of Louisiana.

Legal Malpractice Against Attorneys

Individuals who work with an attorney are often going through a difficult period in their lives. When the results of the case do not reflect their wishes, the attorney may face legal malpractice allegations.

With more than over 173 years of combined experience, our lawyers have worked on cases covering the full spectrum of legal malpractice cases. Our history of successfully litigating professional malpractice cases, include situations involving alleged:

  • Failures to file documents on time
  • Failures to adhere to the code of ethics
  • Conflicts of interest
  • Improper use of the client’s money
  • Failure to appear in court
  • Careless actions during the review or preparation of legal documentation

Legal Malpractice Against Judges

While judges are granted immunity for many of their judicial activities, they can still be vulnerable to malpractice claims for any additional administrative duties. When judicial immunity is not available, or not being properly recognized, our attorneys provide a strong defense against malpractice allegations stemming from court administration, probation programs and other judicial or nonjudicial actions.

In addition to judges, our experience includes representing commissioners, magistrates and justices of the peace.
