Quote:
A lawyer can also commit malpractice by breaching his or her fiduciary duty. An attorney owes his or her client the utmost duty of loyalty and confidentiality. An attorney can breach their fiduciary duty by engaging in self-dealing, not disclosing a conflict of interest (suing a current or former client), disclosing confidential information, putting the attorney’s interest above the client’s interest, and misusing client funds.
