Supreme Court of Delaware
GMG Insurance Agency v. Margolis Edelstein
April 19, 2024
Summary
The court reversed summary judgment for Margolis Edelstein in GMG Insurance Agency's legal-malpractice action. It held that genuine disputes existed concerning whether Margolis breached the professional standard of care through its discovery, summary-judgment, and joint-representation conduct, and that the Superior Court failed to address whether GMG would have prevailed entirely in the underlying litigation absent that negligence. The court remanded for further proceedings and did not resolve the superseding-cause issue.
