One Take on Mandatory Legal Malpractice Insurance

Susan Cartier-Liebel's Solo Law Blog puts this argument forward:  mandatory legal malpractice insurance is unnecessary, because it would not benefit clients, only subject attorneys to sky-high premiums. 

She writes: "Huh? What I can tell you is this: forcing lawyers to purchase malpractice insurance for this purpose would itself be a crime. It's called extortion......

And the ones who will be harmed the most are solo and small firm practitioners who already struggle under the weight of malpractice insurance premiums. "
