Lee Smart's legal-malpractice group has successfully defended hundreds
of legal-malpractice claims in state and federal courts. We have defended
claims arising from virtually every type of practice, including securities,
criminal defense, torts, probate, commercial litigation, medical malpractice,
tax law, and business practice.
Just a few of Lee Smart's significant reported appellate decisions
in the area of legal-malpractice defense are Harrington v. Pailthorp,
67 Wn. App. 901, 776 P.2d 971 (1992) (defines the duty of lawyers
to non-clients); McKasson v. State, 55 Wn. App. 18, 776 P.2d 971
(1989) (defines the limited right of non-clients to sue); and Smith
v. Simonarson, 56 Wn. App. 513, 784 P.2d 552 (1990) (failure to
record judgment and effect of automatic stay).
