In many cases these errors cause significant financial losses to the client who often has little alternative than to instruct a professional negligence solicitor to take legal action to recover damages. A professional person is under a legal duty to exercise 'reasonable skill and care' when dealing with client affairs which means that their standard of expertise has to be the same as others doing the same work in the same geographical area. The court that decides the issue is not a tribunal of excellence and does not expect the defendant to be an expert on the subject in hand. The defendant must merely show that his behaviour on the occasion in question was reasonable in order to successfully defend a claim for damages.

It may be possible for a defendant to successfully claim that the losses would have occurred in any event, with or without negligent advice. Claims can also be lost if it can be shown that a claimant would never have followed good advice or would have gone ahead and acted in the same way whatever advice had been given.

This means that losses cannot be claimed that do not arise directly from the inadequate advice and only losses that are reasonably foreseeable can be claimed.
