Accountant Negligence
Accountant negligence can have serious financial consequences, and DSM Legal is here to help you recover. If an accountant provides incorrect tax advice, fails to file accounts or tax returns on time, or misreports financial data, you could face penalties, overpaid taxes, or missed savings. For businesses, poor auditing or flawed financial planning might lead to significant losses or regulatory issues. Our solicitors carefully review your case, examining financial records, correspondence, and the accountant’s actions against professional standards, such as those set by bodies like the Institute of Chartered Accountants. We work to prove the breach of duty and link it to your losses, then pursue compensation for penalties, lost profits, or additional costs. With our expertise, DSM Legal fights to hold negligent accountants accountable, delivering tailored solutions to protect your financial interests.
Solicitor negligence
Solicitor negligence can undermine your legal position, and DSM Legal is equipped to address it. If a solicitor misses a limitation period, fails to advise you properly on a contract, or mishandles litigation, you might lose your right to a claim, face unexpected liabilities, or suffer financial harm. This could include poor conveyancing in property transactions or inadequate representation in disputes. Our team assesses the solicitor’s conduct against standards like those of the Solicitors Regulation Authority, gathering evidence such as case files and communications. We aim to prove negligence and causation, seeking compensation for lost opportunities, additional legal costs, or damages. DSM Legal offers clear guidance and strong representation, working diligently to rectify the impact of a solicitor’s failure and secure the redress you deserve.
Architect negligence
Architect negligence can derail projects, and DSM Legal supports you in seeking justice. If an architect produces flawed designs, ignores planning regulations, or fails to supervise construction properly, you might face costly repairs, delays, or unsafe structures. This could involve miscalculating structural loads or neglecting building codes, leading to financial loss or safety risks. Our solicitors investigate the architect’s work, reviewing plans, contracts, and compliance with standards like those of the Royal Institute of British Architects. We collaborate with experts to establish negligence and its impact, pursuing compensation for repair costs, project delays, or lost value. DSM Legal provides expert advice and robust action, ensuring negligent architects are held accountable and your project’s integrity is restored.
