Imagine this, you are a lawyer and one of your loyal clients reaches out to you to represent them in a case. You accept to represent them amidst the many clients you are working with and you get overwhelmed with work. You end up forgetting to file a motion in the name of your loyal client in due time and they end up in trial instead of the court dismissing a claim against them. Regardless of how well or long you have worked with them in the past, the client decides to sue you for malpractice.

Professionals in specialized fields such as lawyers, doctors, engineers or accountants invest a lot of time and resources into getting education, training, and license to practice in their professions.
