Duty of care in professional negligence covers claims arising when a professional’s breach of the standard of care causes loss to a client. It includes solicitors, doctors, architects and other regulated professionals. A solicitor handling these matters investigates the breach, gathers expert evidence, negotiates settlements, and may issue or defend court proceedings to recover damages. In practice, claims hinge on establishing the duty, breach, causation and loss, with time limits and professional indemnity shaping strategy.
