Law Firms & Lawyers

Allegations of legal malpractice or professional misconduct can place a lawyer’s career, reputation, and financial stability at risk. Keogh Cox represents attorneys and law firms across Louisiana in malpractice litigation and disciplinary proceedings, providing strategic defense in high-stakes matters.

We understand the unique pressures these claims create and work closely with clients to evaluate both the malpractice allegations and the underlying representation at issue. Our approach focuses on early case assessment, identifying key defenses, and developing a strategy aligned with each client’s professional and business goals.

Our team represents both self-insured attorneys and those covered by professional liability carriers, handling matters in trial and appellate courts as well as before disciplinary bodies. We prioritize efficient resolution where appropriate, while remaining fully prepared to defend claims through motion practice and trial.

Our work includes:

• Defense of legal malpractice and professional negligence claims
• Representation in disciplinary proceedings before the Louisiana Attorney Disciplinary Board
• Breach of fiduciary duty and client relationship disputes
• Claims involving conflicts of interest and fee arrangements
• Allegations of misrepresentation, communication failures, and professional conduct issues
• Pre-litigation strategy and early resolution efforts

Keogh Cox provides focused, experienced representation for attorneys and law firms, helping clients protect their practice, reputation, and long-term professional standing.
