Attorney Negligence — Orange County Legal Malpractice Attorney
James Traut represents people who have been damaged by the actions of an attorney. He recognizes that these cases are especially sensitive. You have already trusted another lawyer and have had that trust betrayed. Why trust again? Because it’s possible to hold the original attorney accountable for your damages caused by his or her negligence.

Workplace Accidents
Your workplace is probably more dangerous than you imagine — unless you’ve been hurt there. Then, you know firsthand that a serious personal injury is likely to change your opinion of your workplace, as well as your life. Take action to hold the negligent party accountable for the harm you experienced:

Dangerous Property Conditions — Premises Liability
If you have been hurt on another’s property, it is possible to hold that property owner or his or her insurance company accountable for your injuries. Of course, no amount of compensation will ever make things right again. We know. But prosecuting a successful lawsuit can give you the resources to move forward with your life.
